(author)Introduction: he main purpose of this study was to investigate the overall relation between the mean (at the nomothetic or group level) subjective valence and arousal ratings for odors. Although well established in other sensory modalities (e.g., visual, auditory, gustatory, tactile), this relation has not previously been investigated for odors...article 2020

Neural representations of haptic object size in the human brain revealed by multivoxel fMRI patternsPerini, F. (author), Powell, T. (author), Watt, S.J. (author), Downing, P.E. (author)The brain must interpret sensory input from diverse receptor systems to estimate object properties. Much has been learned about the brain mechanisms behind these processes in vision, but our understanding of haptic perception remains less clear. Here we examined haptic judgments of object size, which require integrating multiple cutaneous and...article 2020

(author)Implicit approach-avoidance tendencies can be measured by the approach-avoidance task (AAT). The emergence of mobile variants of the AAT enable its use for both in-the-lab and in-the-field experiments. Within the food domain, use of the AAT is concentrated in research on eating disorders or healthy eating and is seldom used as an implicit...conference paper 2020

Simons, E.C. (author), Weerheijm, J. (author), Toussaint, G. (author), Sluys, L.J. (author)In this study, the impact of a steel spherical projectile on an alumina ceramic is considered. New experimental and numerical results are presented and analysed. Numerical results are obtained using the Finite Element Method and the upgraded viscosity regularized Johnson-Holmquist-2 constitutive model to describe the ceramic material behaviour....article 2020

(author)The release of flammable gases inside a traffic tunnel can result in a hazardous atmosphere, potentially leading to explosions. The use of mechanized ventilation and water mist systems for fire protection, could improve the safety of road tunnels in case of accidents or fires by mitigating the explosive area of the released gas. The effects of...conference paper 2020

Offerhaus, P. (author), Jans, S (author), Hukkelhoven, C. (author), de Vries, R. (author), Nieuwenhuijze, M. (author)Background: The maternity care system in the Netherlands is well known for its support of community-based midwifery. However, regular midwifery practices typically do not offer caseload midwifery care - one-to-one continuity of care throughout pregnancy and birth. Because we know very little about the outcomes for women receiving caseload care...article 2020

Schoen, E.D. (author), Wopereis, S. (author)BACKGROUND: Parallel intervention studies involving volunteers usually require a procedure to allocate the subjects to study-arms. Statistical models to evaluate the different outcomes of the study-arms will include study-arm as a factor along with any covariate that might affect the results. To ensure that the effects of the covariates are...article 2020
