This article focuses on the early history of Northwestern European opinion polling (1940s–1950s), specifically the cases of the Netherlands and Sweden. The evolution of opinion polling and its influence on post-war politics and society should be understood in light of processes of international transfer and entanglement. The Dutch-Swedish comparison brings into focus the ways in which the national
The excursion distribution of stochastic processes is important in many applications and is an important object in probability theory. The excursion distributions are defined as the time between a u-level up-crossing and the following down-crossing of the same level. While the notion of the excursion distribution might be intuitive, the general problem of describing it is not. Finding the excursio

Our experience has perceptualpresen
This article critically examines two claims Mattia Riccardi ascribes to Nietzsche in his 2021 book Nietzsche’s Philosophical Psychology. The first is that Nietzsche’s main notion of consciousness should be interpreted as Rconsciousness. Rconsciousness is an awareness of a mental state or process that is achieved when that state is linguistically interpreted by another state. This article finds tha
Since 2010, it has become increasingly clear that North Germanic word accents have a strong predictive function in speech processing. Recent findings on the semantic effects of word accents might appear contradictory to this interpretation. However, we show that the predictive perspective is crucial for understanding these semantic effects.
INTRODUCTION: Temporal lobe epilepsy is the most common form of focal epilepsy, often associated with cognitive impairments, particularly in memory functions, and depression. Sex and APOE ε4 genotype play a crucial role in modulating cognitive outcomes and depression in various neurological conditions like Alzheimer's disease. However, the combined effects of APOE genotype and sex on cognitive per
The ways in which we experience life through, with and around media constitutes creative practices in our daily routines. However, media use is in part associated with harmful effects, for example television viewing amongst children and young people (Livingstone 2009). Discourses around digital games have been echoing the same type of concerns, becoming one of the focal points of these struggles i
