Abstract:

Aim: The aim of this thesis was to map specific musculoskeletal impairments experienced by adults with physical disabilities at the Piña Palmera rehabilitation center in Mexico and to categorize them according to the ICF. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted through observations and a survey based on predefined questions. The questions covered the individuals’ level of independence, pain, earlier treatment and biggest obstacle in daily life. The participants were observed when they received physical therapy or in their daily work at the center. The results from the survey and obser

Abstract:

<p> Category-specific semantic deficits (CSSD) result in the inability to recognize, recall, and/or remember objects from a particular semantic category. There is a common pattern of impairments observed in CSSD patients that is reviewed in Section One. In Section Two, I used a tempo-matching speeded word verification task to investigate the early stages of semantic memory to examine the similarities between healthy participants under time pressure and the patient data. Specifically, I sought to produce in the latter the reversal of the basic level effect found in CSSD, and to examine healthy

Abstract:

Companies allocate the majority of the acquisition price to goodwill, which has resulted in goodwill to become a prominent asset on companies balance sheets. Research shows that goodwill impairments lag behind the economic reality between two to four years and that the current accounting regime does not provide adequate disclosures to predict future impairments. The purpose of this paper is to examine what factors that can predict the occurrence of future goodwill impairments. We carry out our investigation by choosing several pre-acquisition and post-performance indicators, which we hand-coll

Abstract:

The nature of cognitive impairments in developmental dyslexia was investigated in two studies. The issue of heterogeneity was addressed and an attempt was made to identify cognitive processes which might feature in a dimensional model of reading ability. The first study examined the hypothesis that developmental dyslexics are delayed in their general perceptual development. Phonological, visual and tactile segmentation skills were assessed together with nonword naming ability. As a group, the dyslexics were only impaired for reading age at phoneme deletion and nonword naming. However, individu

Abstract:

Mergers and acquisitions are business transactions with great potential for value creation. Although they are extremely popular, mergers and acquisitions are usually a gamble, complex to structure, and even more difficult to successfully implement. While realizing the expected synergies is possible, more often than not, mergers and acquisitions are less successful than anticipated and result in substantial destruction of shareholder value. Generally, these transactions come in waves, and many believe that one is currently starting. This study reports the motivations for mergers and acquisition

However, the drive towards higher- order modulation formats leads to greater transmission impairments, reducing the maximum distance over which increased capacity can
