Abstract:
Web attacks pose a prime concern for cybersecurity, and whilst attackers are leveraging modern technologies to launch unpredictable attacks with serious consequences, web attack detectors are still restricted to the classical misuse and anomaly detection methods. As a result, web attack detectors have limited resilience to novel attacks or produce impractical amounts of daily false alerts. Advances in intrusion detection techniques have so far only partly alleviated the problem as they are still tied to existing methods. This thesis proposes Distress Detection (DD), a detection method providin

Abstract:
Given the economic importance of distressed firms, this thesis was motivated by an apparent lack of financial economic research examining distressed firms and their securities. The thesis principally focuses on the following two areas: (1) the costs of Chapter 11, and (2) the financial performance of low-grade bonds (i.e., "risky debt"). In addition, the laws and regulations affecting distressed firms are reviewed. Therefore, the main contributions of this thesis are empirical in nature. Regarding the costs of Chapter 11, the evidence presented suggests that they are large. Specifically, the c

There is a consistent research base that shows that class and inequality is associated with poorer mental health and experiences of distress. Various explanations for this link have been proposed, including psychological, social, structural, material and political factors. Experiences of powerlessness and oppression have also been implicated. Nevertheless psychology focuses predominately on explanations and interventions at the individual level. To explore this incongruence, a Foucauldian Discourse Analysis was completed of texts produced by Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT),

Montreal was selected as the focus of this study because it is a large metropolitan region with some of the highest income disparities in Canada.

Abstract:
Dementia is a common comorbidity in older people admitted to general hospital. People with dementia have a high prevalence of psychological symptoms, pain and delirium, which if left untreated can cause distress and predispose the person to worse outcomes. Identifying individual symptoms or the causes of distress can be difficult because people with more severe dementia often struggle to communicate. Systems are in place to help healthcare professionals recognise and treat individual symptoms, but they require the user to be able to apply and use them appropriately. This thesis describes the d

Large corporate failures and scandals in recent years indicate the shortcomings of current risk assessment tools and highlight the need for more extensive research on predicting financial distress (FD).

The first essay compares the accuracy of traditional distress prediction models at predicting the early warning signs of financial distress.

Individuals with diabetes face many multifaceted issues when integrating their plan of care into their daily lives, which can become burdensome and lead to inadequate diabetes control. Due to the persistent demands of diabetes management, screening for psychosocial factors that can impact control, such as depression, anxiety, and diabetes-related distress (DRD) should occur routinely (American Diabetes Association [ADA], 2017). DRD is distinctly different from depression in that the focus is on the burden experienced due to the rigorous treatment regimen associated with diabetes. DRD focuses

However, findings on associations between psychological distress, cognitive-affective changes and hormones have been inconsistent.

Stigma is an individual’s devalued identity or other characteristic that may lead to stereotyping, prejudice, and discrimination.

Understanding how people benefit from adversity will help promote less distress for people who experience different types (visible or covert) of stigma. Three central questions were addressed.
