The role of simulations in consumer experiences and behavior: insights from the grounded cognition theory of desire [PDF]

, 2017
What are the mechanisms by which extrinsic and environmental cues affect consumer experiences, desires, and choices? Based on the recent grounded cognition theory of desire, we argue that consumption and reward simulations constitute a central mechanism ...

Sounds Sweet: Sound Reduplication in Brand Names Enhances Sweet Taste Expectations

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The association between brand name sounds and taste perception is an emerging area of interest in marketing research. This study aims to demonstrate the role of sound‐evoked cuteness in the expectation of sweet taste. Across seven studies (including two supplementary studies), our findings revealed that sound reduplication in brand names is ...

Rapid evolution of chemosensory receptor genes in a pair of sibling species of orchid bees (Apidae: Euglossini). [PDF]

, 2015
BackgroundInsects rely more on chemical signals (semiochemicals) than on any other sensory modality to find, identify, and choose mates. In most insects, pheromone production is typically regulated through biosynthetic pathways, whereas pheromone sensory

Does ambient noise or hypobaric atmosphere influence olfactory and gustatory function?

PLoS ONE, 2018
Multidimensional food perception is based mainly on gustatory and olfactory function. Recent research has demonstrated that hypobaric pressure impairs gustatory function and that background noise or distracting auditory stimulation impairs olfactory ...

High‐throughput transcriptome mining and in silico screening reveal saccharide feeding stimulants for Cydia pomonella larvae

New Plant Protection, EarlyView.
We identified and characterized the gustatory and ionotropic receptors of Cydia pomonella using transcriptomics and in silico approaches, linking candidate sugar receptors to larval feeding attraction. Functional assays and behavioral tests highlighted isoquercitrin as a key feeding stimulant, providing a foundation for olfactory‐ and taste‐based pest ...

Individual variation in perceived density of conspecifics and its impacts on the realization of ecological niches

Oikos, EarlyView.
Animals gather information about their surroundings, including their social environment, using a wide range of sensory modalities. Variation in reception, processing and interpretation of information (cues or signals) can lead to differences in how individuals perceive their local environment. Yet, how individual differences in environmental perception
