Download or read book Sensory Marketing written by Aradhna Krishna and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2011-02-25 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is sensory marketing and why is it interesting and also important? Krishna defines it as marketing that engages the consumers’ senses and affects their behaviors. In this edited book, the authors discuss how sensory aspects of products, i.e., the touch , taste, smell, sound, and look of the products, affect our emotions, memories, perceptions, preferences, choices, and consumption of these products. We see how creating new sensations or merely emphasizing or bringing attention to existing sensations can increase a product’s or service’s appeal. The book provides an overview of sensory marketing research that has taken place thus far. It should facilitate sensory marketing by practitioners and also can be used for research or in academic classrooms.

Download or read book Longevity written by Ashlee Kirschner and published by Library and Archives Canada. This book was released on 2019-05 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Many begin following Christ, but few finish. Plausible doubts flare up eroding simple faith. Loss and emotional upheaval storm through and the reality of God seems but a fanatical myth. Following Christ starts out easy, but somewhere along the way, it becomes excruciating. I know this for I have lived it. Longevity is my story of finding and following God amidst doubts, hurts, and failures. It might be too honest, but maybe that's what you need. Maybe you need to see someone else flailing and meeting God in the mess." Longevity delves into the hurdles I've overcome (and am overcoming) to continually follow Christ. You will see the logical struggles I've had with the Christian faith and Bible as well as the truths I've found along the way. You will get a glimpse into my relationship with Christ and the emotional upheavals we've journeyed through: from singleness and sin to struggling with Heaven and Hell and hope. This book is terribly honest and truly reflective of my heart. If I did not think the experiences I've had and the words I write had the power to immensely encourage you, I would have not gone through the effort. It has been an absolute battle (emotionally and technologically) to get this book to a point where you can hold it in your hands. I strongly believe this process was a battle because this little book has the power to affect you. Please take the time to read and ponder the messages I present. Nothing in this book has been easily arrived at and nothing has been written without much struggle going on in the background. This book is my gift to you. -ashlee PS Want to hear more from me?

Download or read book Music and Dementia written by Sandra Garrido and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2019-09-16 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dementia is the most significant health issue facing our aging population. With no cure to date, there is an urgent need for the development of interventions that can alleviate symptoms of dementia and ensure optimal well-being for people with dementia and their caregivers. There is accumulating evidence that music is a highly effective, non-pharmacological treatment for various symptoms of dementia at all stages of disease progression. In its various forms, music (as a medium for formal therapy or an informal activity) engages widespread brain regions, and in doing so, can promote numerous benefits, including triggering memories, enhancing relationships, affirming a sense of self, facilitating communication, reducing agitation, and alleviating depression and anxiety. This book outlines the current research and understanding of the use of music for people with dementia, from internationally renowned experts in music therapy, music psychology, and clinical neuropsychology.
Download or read book Working Memory Capacity written by Nelson Cowan and published by Psychology Press. This book was released on 2016-04-14 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The idea of one's memory "filling up" is a humorous misconception of how memory in general is thought to work; it actually has no capacity limit. However, the idea of a "full brain" makes more sense with reference to working memory, which is the limited amount of information a person can hold temporarily in an especially accessible form for use in the completion of almost any challenging cognitive task. This groundbreaking book explains the evidence supporting Cowan's theoretical proposal about working memory capacity, and compares it to competing perspectives. Cognitive psychologists profoundly disagree on how working memory is limited: whether by the number of units that can be retained (and, if so, what kind of units and how many), the types of interfering material, the time that has elapsed, some combination of these mechanisms, or none of them. The book assesses these hypotheses and examines explanations of why capacity limits occur, including vivid biological, cognitive, and evolutionary accounts. The book concludes with a discussion of the practical importance of capacity limits in daily life. This 10th anniversary Classic Edition will continue to be accessible to a wide range of readers and serve as an invaluable reference for all memory researchers.
