Download or read book Understanding Purchase Intention of Functional Beverages Among Taiwan s College Students written by Ai-Lin Lee and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As health awareness among consumers has risen over the last couple of decades, the market of functional beverages is expected to witness ongoing growth in annual sales. However, research which identifies the determinants of consumers purchase intention of functional beverages in one of the emerging markets, Taiwan, is scant. Therefore, the aim of this research is to investigate what factors motivate consumers to buy functional beverages using Ajzen's Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB). Also, this study tests and analyses the extended TPB model with product involvement as additional intention driver, and moderation model with two moderators - product involvement and past behaviour. In addition, this research compares the TPB with its original framework, the Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA), in terms of their predictive ability. Data for the study were collected in May and June of 2011 from 309 Taiwan's college students. Descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, and regression analyses are conducted to understand the relationship between intention determinants and behavioural intention. Results of this study support the use of the TPB in explaining consumers' purchase intention of functional beverages with 39.4% of variance explained by the TPB variables. Moreover, the TPB is proved to hold more explanatory power than the TRA. Even though the findings suggest no moderating effects of product involvement and past behaviour on the relationship between the TPB variables and intention, product involvement is found to have a direct relationship with intention. The inclusion of this involvement variable makes the extended model to account for 48.5% of variance in intention. To conclude, this study offers insights for understanding possible factors affecting consumers purchase intention of functional beverages.

This book was released on 2008-02-27 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: This study addresses the influence of energy drinks on concentration, examining in particular the impact of their stimulating ingredients (physiological effect) and product label (label/placebo effect) on objectively measured and perceived concentration. A 3 x 3 (beverage x product label) cross-factorial between-subjects design was applied. 364 students sampled a beverage, evaluated their perceived concentration at different points in time and completed a standardized concentration test after a latency of 30 minutes. While the beverage itself had neither an effect on perceived concentration nor on the concentration test results, perceived concentration was influenced by the product label. The relation between the product label and perceived concentration was partly mediated by expectations, which in turn were conditionally moderated by the global belief in the efficacy of energy drinks.

In one of the most popular studies on the influence of a label on taste-related judgments Allison & Uhl (1964) asked beer drinkers to rate different kinds of beer. In a blind test ratings did not vary amongst the different beers, but when the beers were labeled subjects gave the one they usually prefer higher ratings, these being [...]

Download or read book Food Medicine and the Quest for Good Health written by Nancy N. Chen and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2008-12-15 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What we eat, how we eat, where we eat, and when we eat are deeply embedded cultural practices. Eating is also related to how we medicate. The multimillion-dollar diet industry offers advice on how to eat for a better body and longer life, and avoiding harmful foods (or choosing healthy ones) is considered separate from consuming medicine another multimillion-dollar industry. In contrast, most traditional medical systems view food as inseparable from medicine and regard medicinal foods as the front line of healing. Drawing on medical texts and food therapy practices from around the world and throughout history, Nancy N. Chen locates old and new crossovers between food and medicine in different social and cultural contexts. The consumption of spices, sugar, and salt was once linked to specific healing properties, and trade in these commodities transformed not just the political economy of Europe, Asia, and the New World but local tastes and food practices as well. Today's technologies are rapidly changing traditional attitudes toward food, enabling the cultivation of new admixtures, such as nutraceuticals and genetically modified food, that link food to medicine in novel ways. Chen considers these developments against the evolving food regimes of the diet industry in order to build a framework for understanding diet as individual practice, social prescription, and political formation.

Download or read book Nicotine Caffeine and Social Drinking Behaviour and Brain Function written by Monicque Lorist and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-19 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often, people use nicotine, caffeine, and some level of alcohol in varying combinations at different times of the day in order to optimize their functioning and feelings of well-being, whether at work, in leisure time, or in a social context. However, until now, studies on the effects of this everyday practice have been diverse, widespread, and insufficiently summarized. Recently developed methods to study the effects in more detail have received little attention, especially among a nonscientific readership. Nicotine, Caffeine and Social Drinking focuses readers' attention on the effects of normal, socially accepted psychoactive substances on cognitive performance and on the brain. Divided into three sections, this book studies each substance individually before examining the effects of their combined usage.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The focus of food science and technology has shifted from previous goals of improving food safety and enhancing food taste toward providing healthy and functional foods. Today’s consumers desire foods that go beyond basic nutrition—foods capable of promoting better health, or even playing a disease-prevention role. To meet this need for innovation, academic research must be combined with the development and commercialization strategies of industry. Innovation in Healthy and Functional Foods brings together this knowledge, with contributions from experts in biological science, food science, engineering, marketing, regulation, law, finance, sustainability, and management. Focusing on functional foods that have components added—such as omega-3, probiotics, and protein—to provide health benefits, this book presents various aspects of the innovation process. These include consumer insights, trends in developed and developing markets, and technological advances in functional foods and ingredients. It also addresses the key drivers of food industry innovation—affordability, sustainability, and tightening government regulations. Chapters cover characteristics of various markets around the world; consumer perception; food processing, packaging, and ingredients; innovation in functional ingredients; and functional ingredient delivery. Given the importance and challenges of getting functional food products into the marketplace, this book also covers the business aspects of innovation in food science, including marketing, financial implications, and commercial feasibility. Additionally, contributors provide insights into future trends, such as food tourism, nanotechnology, sustainability, and globalization. Bringing together expertise from academia and industry, this text provides an overview of contemporary food science, with wisdom and know-how in both innovation and commercialization, placing functional foods in a broader context for readers.
