The Effects of Heat Acclimation Followed by Sleep Deprivation on Perceived Exertion, Thirst, and Thermal Sensations in Exercising Males

Subjects were tested while walking on a tradmill for 11 days in a row at sub-maximal levels for 90 minutes the heat. After the 10th day, subjects were kept awake for 24 hours before being tested in a state of sleep deprivation on the 11th day. Subjects rated their perceived exertion, thirst levels, and thermal sensations at regular intervals before, during, and after exercise each day. The changes in RPE, thirst, and thermal sensations were examined to determine the progression of heat acclimation and to observe changes in the subjects' perceived workloads. While subjects were significantly less thirsty on day 10 than when beginning the study on day 1, no significant changes occured in regards to thermal sensations or RPE values. On the 11th day, these variables were again observed in order to examine the effects of sleep deprivation on the adaptations of heat acclimation. After 28 hours of sleep loss, subjects rated themselves as feeling significantly more thristy after exercise than they had on day 10, yet again there was no significant change in thermal sensations or RPE values. Throughout the study, RPE and thermal sensation ratings seemed to be closely linked while sensations of thirst fluctuated independently.

Using quantitative descriptive analysis and temporal dominance of sensations analysis as complementary methods for profiling commercial blackcurrant squashes

Quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA) is used to describe the nature and the intensity of sensory properties from a single evaluation of a product, whereas temporal dominance of sensation (TDS) is primarily used to identify dominant sensory properties over time. Previous studies with TDS have focused on model systems, but this is the first study to use a sequential approach, i.e. QDA then TDS in measuring sensory properties of a commercial product category, using the same set of trained assessors (n = 11). The main objectives of this study were to: (1) investigate the benefits of using a sequential approach of QDA and TDS and (2) to explore the impact of the sample composition on taste and flavour perceptions in blackcurrant squashes. The present study has proposed an alternative way of determining the choice of attributes for TDS measurement based on data obtained from previous QDA studies, where available. Both methods indicated that the flavour profile was primarily influenced by the level of dilution and complexity of sample composition combined with blackcurrant juice content. In addition, artificial sweeteners were found to modify the quality of sweetness and could also contribute to bitter notes. Using QDA and TDS in tandem was shown to be more beneficial than each just on its own enabling a more complete sensory profile of the products.

International Sensations : Representationen av nationalitet i World Wrestling Entertainment

Denna uppsats intresserar sig för professional wrestling och då specifikt bolaget World Wrestling Entertainment, WWE. Syftet med uppsatsen är att undersöka hur nationalitet representeras i World Wrestling Entertainments produkt. Uppsatsens teoretiska ramverk består utav tre olika författare. Dessa tre är Michael Billig, Stuart Hall och Roland Barthes. Från Michael Billig används begreppen 'hot and banal nationalism' för att definiera nationalism. Från Stuart Hall hämtas teorier om 'representation', vad det är och hur det fungerar samt olika perspektiv på varför det är intressant att studera 'olikhet'. Slutligen använder sig uppsatsen utav Roland Barthes artikel Le monde où l'on catche, the World of Wrestling i den engelska översättningen, som analyserar wrestling på ett semiotiskt vis. Många av de teorier som Barthes presenterar i denna artikel är relevanta än idag trots att han skrev artikeln på 1950-talet. Uppsatsens frågeställning kommer att undersökas genom en multimodal analys. En multimodal analys lämpar sig väl för ett så visuellt fenomen som wrestling. Det möjliggör även för studier av de rent textuella elementen i programmen och inte bara det visuella. Materialet består utav de inledande videomontagen från två olika wrestlingmatcher. Båda matcherna är hämtade från WWEs största årliga pay-per-view Wrestlemania som gått av stapeln varje år sedan år 1985. Den ena matchen är hämtad från Wrestlemania 29 år 2013 och den andra är hämtad från Wrestlemania 31 år 2015. Båda matcherna inkluderar icke-amerikanska karaktärer. Den första matchen ser amerikanen Jack Swagger möta mexikanen Alberto Del Rio och den andra matchen ser amerikanen John Cena möta den ryske Rusev. Efter analysen kunde slutsatsen dras att vad gällde de matcher som analyserats framställdes de ickeamerikanska karaktärerna varken positivt eller negativt. Vad analysen lyckades komma fram till var att de icke-amerikanska karaktärerna var där för att reproducera en bild av den amerikanska nationella identiteten och att de icke-amerikanska karaktärernas nationaliteter egentligen inte var relevanta. Det relevanta var det faktum att de var just icke-amerikaner. Deras faktiska nationaliteter behandlades inte i någon större utsträckning i materialet. Materialet verkade mest kretsa kring USA och dess nationella identitet.

The role of catastrophic misinterpretation of bodily sensations and panic self-efficacy in predicting panic severity

This study investigated the role of both negative and positive cognitions in predicting panic severity in an international sample of patients diagnosed with panic disorder (with and without agoraphobia). One hundred and fifty-nine patients were administered the Brief Bodily Sensations Interpretation Questionnaire (BBSIQ), the Self-efficacy to Control Panic Attacks Questionnaire, and the Panic and Agoraphobia Scale (PAS) prior to receiving treatment. Regression analyses indicated that both catastrophic misinterpretation of bodily sensations and panic self-efficacy independently predicted panic severity. The influence of panic self-efficacy upon panic severity remained significant even after controlling for the presence or absence of agoraphobia. There was no evidence to suggest a moderating relationship between the two cognitive factors. Results are discussed in terms of the need to consider both negative and positive cognitions in cognitive accounts of panic disorder. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Inc. All rights reserved.
