In the economy intangible assets have become more and more important. Financial standards have evolved in order to capture this change and to be relevant.

Abstract:
Disability is a contested concept. There is a little agreement within the social sciences on who disabled people are, what causes disability or on the impact of disability on identity and identity formation. On the one hand, there are those within medical sociology who see disability arising as the outcome of impairment and focus their research and theorising on the trouble that an impairment causes for disabled people. This understanding is based on a normative definition. On the other hand, there are those within disability studies who argue that disablement arises as a consequence of a soci

Developmental language impairments are neurodevelopmental disorders in which the acquisition of language, a task which children typically perform with ease, is hindered or fraught with difficulty. This work focuses on specific language impairment (SLI), a common and highly heritable language impairment in which language development is abnormal while other developmental domains are normal. Additionally, a case-study of a child with a broader linguistic and behavioural phenotype is also presented.

The clinical syndrome of heart failure is one of the leading causes of hospitalisation and mortality in older adults. Due to ageing of the general population and improved survival from cardiac disease the prevalence of heart failure is rising.

Insomnia is a common problem in older people, especially in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) whose circadian rhythm is often compromised. Insomnia exerts such a toll on caregivers that it is frequently the primary reason for seeking to institutionalize their loved ones. Three different types of insomnia are recognized: sleep-onset or initial insomnia, sleep maintenance or middle insomnia, and early morning awakening or late insomnia. Nocturnal hypoglycemia, as a cause of middle insomnia, is the main focus of this case study. Other types of insomnia are also briefly reviewed. The m

Abstract:
Although much work has been done to unravel the mechanisms by which memory forms, is retained, and is brought back up again, there remains many unanswered questions of the opposing side of phenomenon: the issue of forgetting. Forgetting is often debated as being caused by either an impairment of retrieval mechanisms or a failure of storing the memory trace. Recently, a novel approach to differentiate between these two theories has been devised by using a second learning protocol, which takes advantage of the unique properties of second learning acquisition. We show that unlike first, naive lea

Abstract:
This thesis argues that unfair social disadvantage is best conceived as the relative impairment of the will of the person when that will is directed towards a valuable end. That valuable end is self-realisation. The term ‘self-realisation’ signifies a perfectionist conception of social justice in which the self-realisation of other persons forms part of one’s own self-realisation. Although the notion of a substantive will is taken to be illusory, the experience of will is taken to be as real as the experience of pain.
