Abstract:

In this thesis I propose an account of knowledge of one's own mental states. My goal is set on a unified transparency account of self-knowledge. It is unified, because the proposal will account for the generation of beliefs about mental states of all types, regardless of whether they are propositional, non-propositional, experiential or non-experiential. My account will thereby be applicable to knowledge of any mental state, from beliefs and desires to fears, hopes, and sensations such as pain. Moreover, it will be a transparency account because it holds on to Gareth Evans's (1982) observation

Abstract:

Polymorphism presents complex issues for the pharmaceutical industry from processing, regulatory, patenting and stability perspectives. It can be further challenging to control the same form throughout processing and development when it has the capacity to form a hydrate. Incorporation of water into the crystal lattice contributes to significant differences in solubility, stability and bioavailability of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API). During processing and formulating steps, water is used in many procedures such as, recrystallisation, wet granulation, aqueous coating lyophilisatio

Abstract:

From a literature review, it was concluded that schizophrenia primarily involves deficits in conscious, controlled processing. This was shown to be compatible with Frith's (1992) neuropsychological model of impaired metarepresentation in the disorder. There is strong evidence that patients with paranoid symptoms or behavioural signs have deficits in the representation of others' mental states ('theory of mind'; ToM), but two recent studies have produced conflicting results. Those findings were reconciled in the first study of the thesis, which showed that, on false belief tasks, patients have

Abstract:

The goal of the research reported in this thesis is to contribute to early and accurate detection of dementia. Early detection of dementia is essential to maximising the effectiveness of treatment against memory loss. This goal is pursued by interpreting the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE) in novel ways. The MMSE is the most widely used screening tool for dementia, it is a questionnaire of 30 items. The objectives of the research are as follows: to reduce the dimensions of the MMSE to the most relevant ones in order to inform a predictive model by using computational methods on a data set

An individual differences study with 154 adult participants was used to investigate the relationship between inhibitory control and theory of mind (ToM), using structural equation modelling. The battery of executive function tasks was found to tap two separate inhibitory components, response inhibition and response selection. This went against the literature suggesting one inhibitory factor or two components of response inhibition. The two ToM tasks used were both level-1 perspective taking tasks with similar demands, so were expected to tap the same latent variable. The results showed no corr

Abstract:

Driving a vehicle involves a series of events, which are related to and evolve with the mental state (such as sleepiness, mental load, and stress) of the driv- er.

These driver impairments need to be detected and predicted in order to reduce critical situations and road accidents. In the past years, physiological signals have become conven- tional measures in driver impairment research. Physiological signals have been applied in various studies to identify different le

The studio glass movement first arose in the United States in the early 1950s, and was characterized by practitioners who wanted to divorce glass from its industrial associations and promote it as a fine arts medium. This movement began in a few cities in the eastern part of the country, and in Los Angeles, but gradually emerged as an art form strongly associated with the city of Seattle and the Puget Sound region. This research studies the emergence and growth of the studio glass movement in the Puget Sound region from 1970 to 2003. It examines how glass artists and Seattle's urban elites int

Introduction: In the last decade it has been proposed that individuals who are at an elevated future risk of developing psychosis compared to the general population can be identified using operationalised criteria. Those who fulfil these criteria are labelled as having an At-Risk Mental State (ARMS) for psychosis. Research in working-age adults has reported a lowering of the short-term rate of transition of such individuals to psychosis over successive cohorts. Nevertheless, such individuals report poor psychosocial functioning and high distress levels. To date, there has been a dearth of rese

It is necessary to assess the intellectual functioning of dementia patients. However, psychometric instruments such as the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale - revised (WAIS-R) are often too demanding for dementia patients, precluding its utility. Clinicians and researchers have indirectly estimated a dementia patient's IQ from the Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE). This measure is an eleven item screen instrument of global cognitive functioning. Fairly accurate estimates of IQ have been predicted using the MMSE total score.The purpose of the present study was to determine if it is possible

For years, mental health has not been a priority in both developing and developed countries and this is seen in low budgets, if at all, allocated to various mental health sectors worldwide. Recent studies show that one in three countries has a budget dedicated to mental health. This is further compounded by a shortage of infrastructure and mental health staff. Consequently, this has a huge impact on forensic state patients (FSPs) who receive fragmented services from various stakeholders.

Over the past two decades there has been a growing interest, both within clinical practice and research, in the At Risk Mental State (ARMS) and individuals who are presenting as putatively prodromal to psychosis.

Together these two pieces provide insights into the understanding and development of the ARMS and add to the growing ARMS literature base.
