Bruk av dyr i vitenskapelige eksperimenter : en filosofisk undersøkelse
2004
I dette arbeidet behandles filosofiske og etiske spørsmål som oppstår i forbindelse med bruk av dyr i vitenskapelige eksperimenter. Med vitenskapelige eksperimenter menes eksperimenter innenfor all slags medisinsk og veterinærmessig forskning og innenfor arbeid som tar sikte på å utvikle og prøve medikamenter. Det tenkes altså både på anvendt forskning og på grunnforskning. Forfatteren kommer ikke inn på bruk av dyr i kosmetikkindustrien, i matvareproduksjonen eller i kontrollen av matvarer. Det gås heller ikke inn på bruk av dyr som kjæledyr eller som følgedyr.
What determines a positive attitude towards natural food products? An expectancy theory approach.
2021
Natural food products are becoming increasingly popular worldwide due to their health and environmental benefits. However, these products' increasing anecdotal popularity has not translated into their widespread adoption; in fact, demand for natural food products remains confined to a relatively small segment of consumers. Despite this, little is known about the facilitators and inhibitors of favourable attitude of consumers towards these products. Recognising this gap, our study employed the theoretical lens of expectancy theory to investigate these factors. Through an extensive review of the pro-environmental consumption literature, we identified four facilitating and inhibiting factors: …
Food waste and out-of-home-dining: antecedents and consequents of the decision to take away leftovers after dining at restaurants
2021
The rising trend of eating out has contributed noticeably to the increase in food waste generated by the hospitality sector. Therefore, it is essential to understand the drivers of food waste generation and the mitigation intentions of diners. Academic research in the area so far is fragmented, with particularly limited insights regarding the intentions to take away leftovers after dining out. The present study addresses this gap by using the theoretical lens of Behavioural Reasoning Theory (BRT) to examine the antecedents of diners' intentions to take away leftovers and how these are associated with their food over-ordering and leftover reuse routine. The hypothesised associations are test…
Practitioners' positive attitudes promote shared decision-making in mental health care
2019
Rationale and aims: There is a growing expectation of implementing shared decision making (SDM) in today's health care service, including mental health care. Traditional understanding of SDM may be too narrow to capture the complexity of treatments of mental health problems. Although the patients' contribution to SDM is well described, the contribution from the health care practitioners is less explored. Therefore, our aim was to explore the attitudes of practitioners in mental health care and the associations between practitioners' attitudes and SDM. Method: We performed a cross‐sectional study where practitioners reported their sharing and caring attitudes on the Patient‐Practitioner Orie…
Purchasing natural personal care products in the era of fake news? The moderation effect of brand trust
2021
Natural personal care products are gaining popularity due to their benefits in terms of health and well-being. However, consumers are wary of these products and are guided by the fake news circulating about them. Since natural product consumption offers several personal and environmental benefits, it would be worthwhile to understand consumers’ tendency to let fake news influence their consumption decisions. Accordingly, the current study examined the association of fake news and purchasing behaviour towards natural personal care products, utilising Stimulus-Organism-Behaviour-Consequence (SOBC) as the theoretical framework. The study proposed openness to change as the stimulus, perceived b…
Why do people purchase from food delivery apps? A consumer value perspective
2021
Consumers are increasingly using food delivery apps (FDAs) to facilitate convenient and quick food delivery. Yet, the existing research offers a limited understanding of consumers’ behavioral responses to the visibility and values derived from FDAs. Our study utilized the theory of consumption values (TCV) to examine associations between FDA visibility, consumption values, and purchase intentions. The mediating role of consumption values and the moderating role of attitude was also studied. A qualitative study was conducted with 15 FDA consumers to derive context-specific consumption values. Responses from 355 FDA consumers from the United States of America (USA) were obtained through Proli…
What drives diners' eco-friendly behaviour? The moderating role of planning routine
2021
Research focusing on diners' intentions towards leftovers, which are considered one of the main sources of consumer food waste in restaurants, is still at a nascent stage and requires further investigation. The present study attempts to address this gap by investigating the antecedents of diners' intentions to take away leftovers and thereby mitigate food waste in an out-of-home setting. Towards this end, we examined the role of personal and social norms as antecedents of the facilitators, inhibitors, and intentions of taking away leftovers. Using the theoretical lens of the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) paradigm, we tested the proposed hypotheses by analysing data collected from 281 din…
Effekter av systematisk opplæring i samtalepreget veiledning målt med en multippel basislinjedesign
2010
Accepted version of an article from the journal: Norsk Tidsskrift for Atferdsanalyse. Published version available from http://www.atferd.no/nta/ Det finnes få empiriske studier av om opplæring i samtalepreget veiledning har effekt i form av økte veiledningsferdigheter. På tross av manglende systematisk empiri, er opplæring i veiledning svært utbredt. I vår studie har vi operasjonalisert grunnleggende veiledningsferdigheter og utviklet et måleinstrument2 med totalt 11 variabler. Fem deltakere har gjennomgått et opplæringsprogram basert på basislinjemålinger, og effektene er målt med samme måleinstrumentet i en multippel basislinjedesign inkludert en oppfølgingsfase. Vi presenterer måleinstru…
Socio-demographic determinants and health related behaviors associated with sustainable food related choices : a quantitative, cross-sectional study …
2016
Masteroppgave folkehelsevitenskap - Universitetet i Agder 2016 Background and objectives: Creating a sustainable food system is considered a global challenge. Evidence suggests reductions of food waste and animal product consumption are among the most important consumer level changes in a food sustainability perspective. The present study aims to gain more knowledge on who is likely to make sustainable food related choices, focusing on household food waste and consumption of animal products. Methods: A selection of socio-demographic determinants and health related behaviors were included in the study. Data were obtained from a questionnaire survey from the study “Fruits and Vegetables Make …
