  1. 1. Decision Strategies : Something Old, Something New, and Something Borrowed

    Författare :Neda Kerimi; Henry Montgomery; James Shanteau; Stockholms universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; Decision strategies; inference; preference; compensatory; non-compensatory; Psychology; Psykologi; Psychology; psykologi;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis, some old decision strategies are investigated and a new one that furthers our understanding of how decisions are made is introduced. Three studies are presented. In Study I and II, strategies are investigated in terms of inferences and in Study III, strategies are investigated in terms of preferences. LÄS MER

  3. 2. A Shaken Self on Shopping : Consumer Threats and Compensatory Consumption

    Författare :Tobias Otterbring; Per Kristensson; Michael Dahlén; Karlstads universitet; []
    Nyckelord :SAMHÄLLSVETENSKAP; SOCIAL SCIENCES; threat-compensation effects; compensatory consumption; belief-behavior inconsistencies; Psykologi; Psychology;

    Sammanfattning : In a series of experiments, with a total sample of over 2,400 participants, this thesis investigates how various threats that customers may encounter influence the customers’ subsequent purchase and choice behaviors. Furthermore, this thesis examines whether individuals’ predicted behaviors in certain consumer contexts are congruent with customers’ actual behaviors in these very contexts. LÄS MER

These preferences bias the genomes of living organisms and the underlying processes can be observed in ongoing evolution. LÄS MER
