Negative associations of frozen compared with fresh vegetables
Helping lower income parents reduce the risk of food waste resulting from children's aversion to healthier food options: Comment on Daniel (2016)
Time of day effects on the regulation of food consumption after activation of health goals
The Impact of Product Name on Dieters' and Nondieters' Food Evaluations and Consumption
This research explores the impact of merely altering the name of a food on dieters' and nondieters' evaluations of the food's healthfulness and taste, as well as consumption. Four studies demonstrate that when a food is identified by a relatively unhealthy name (e.g., pasta), dieters perceive the item to be less healthful and less tasty than do nondieters. When the identical food is assigned a relatively healthy name (e.g., salad), however, dieti…
You Like What I Like, but I Don't Like What You Like: Uniqueness Motivations in Product Preferences
Consumers often gauge their own and others’ preferences for products through social comparisons. This research examines the role of consumers’ need for uniqueness (CNFU) in two common social comparisons: projection and introjection.

However, high-CNFU consumers are less likely than low-CNFU ones to introject (i.e., rely on estimates of o…

The influence of the healthy item on indulgent choice is stronger for those with higher levels of self-control. Support is found for …
