Abstract:
... Concerns about poaching and trafficking have led conservationists to seek urgent responses to tackle the impact on wildlife. One possible solution is the militarisation of conservation, which holds potentially far-reaching consequences. It is important to engage critically with the militarisation of conservation, including identifying and reflecting on the problems it produces for wildlife, for pe ...

Abstract:
... The scientific research conducted so far as well as rich practical expert experience point to the fact that handwriting is individual to each person. On the other hand, there are quite infrequent cases of developing two or more different styles of writing by the same person, during learning-to-write process. These various styles of handwriting are used interchangeably, either spontaneously or inte ...

Abstract:
... Based on means-end chain (MEC) and balance theories, this study aims to construct consumers’ cognitive structure toward services provided by classy restaurants. It also demonstrates how MEC and balance theories can be used to reveal the psychological state of consumers when different volumes of services (i.e., excessive, adequate, and insufficient) are provided. In addition, the findings offer res ...

As an important part of the peace negotiations and current efforts at peace-building, land restitution in the country is a large-scale, multifaceted effort intended to address one of the more difficult components of the peace process. While there are many important features to the Colombian land restitution pr ...

Abstract:
... Definitions are important! They are composed of words that express what people think. Despite numerous efforts to bring about a clear and unbiased definition of social entrepreneurship, there is still confusion as how social entrepreneurship should be defined. The objective of this paper is not to state a novel definition, this means not to "push out", but rather to "pull in" together to better un ...

... In this paper, we scrutinise the sharing economy from a moral householding perspective and evaluate the moral justifications for a sustainable form of the sharing economy. We consider the emergence of normative moral justifications through householding practices that rest on local mobilisation of people in defence of communities and commitments against the adverse impacts of neoliberal market capi ...

Abstract:
... In line with findings on post-purchase food-choice regret, one can expect that pre-purchase anticipated regret with respect to forgone (non-chosen) alternatives has an impact on consumer food choices, especially when the choice is considered to be important. The traditional Random Utility Maximization (RUM) models for discrete choices may not fully capture this impact. This study investigates the ...

Abstract:
... Cross-docking, as one of the efficient strategies of distribution systems can reduce the inventory costs and accelerate the delivery of products to customers. One of the important truck scheduling problems in multi-door cross-docks is a multi-period planning horizon, which is rarely taken into consideration. In addition, a way to assign the cross-dock transportation equipment, such as forklifts to ...

Abstract:
... Vegetarianism and veganism are often grouped together in nutritional and psychological investigations. Yet an emerging body of literature has highlighted that vegetarians and vegans differ along a number of neurological, attitudinal, and behavioral variables. In this research, I found that vegetarians and vegans exhibit different dietarian identity profiles. Compared to vegetarians, vegans saw the ...

Abstract:
... Urban parks provide multiple environmental, social, and salutary benefits for city-dwellers. People who have easy access to parks tend to engage in physical activity more frequently than others. The accessibility of parks is usually quantified using metric proximity, e.g., the distance from home. However, such metrics often fail to reflect the actual spatial configuration of the streets and people ...

Abstract:
... Internet mapping platforms are widely used in participatory planning. They carry the promise of accessibility, a wider audience, and more precise spatial data. However, they are critiqued for issues of trust, digital exclusion, and low usability. While the first two problems can be dependent on the local context, the last one is connected with the introduction of map editing tools. They change bro ...

Abstract:
... Everyday walking is a far-reaching activity with the potential to increase health and well-being in the general public. From a phenomenological perspective, walking can be seen as a function of being-in-the-world, where the landscape, a sense of place, and the moment are closely entwined with the walker’s own lived experiences. Using interviews with 73 walkers in a medium-sized town in Norway, thi ...

Abstract:
... Emotional response has been the subject of many studies during the last years. Many studies have shown the importance of using consumers to generate emotional lexicons. Chaya et al. (2015) developed a consumer defined (CD) lexicon to assess emotional response elicited by beer products. Shortly after, van Zyl and Meiselman (2015) presented a procedure to ensure that emotional lists were fully compo ...

Abstract:
... Farmers’ markets have grown rapidly in recent decades. One explanation for this growth relates to consumers’ view that farmers’ market products are more sustainable. While many have analyzed customer preferences at farmers’ markets, few have examined farmers’ message strategies in this space. Little has been done to analyze the ways farmers use sustainability as a marketing approach. This ethnogra ...

Abstract:
... Broadening the present understanding of how expertise moderates the schema-incongruity effect (i.e., the notion that a product moderately incongruent with the schema evoked for it in memory is associated with a comparatively positive product evaluation), this study argues that people with higher, not lower, degrees of expertise experience incongruity and prefer moderately incongruent products over ...
