Let's talk about promotions
Purpose This study aimed to examine consumers planned versus actual behaviour when grocery shopping, and to understand consumers' motivations for purchasing grocery items on promotional offer, to inform retailer promotional strategy. Design/methodology/approach The study employed a mixed methods approach using a pre-shop survey; an accompanied shop and a post-shop survey to assess. The study sample comprised 48 participants aged over 18 years old…
The biogenic sulfur cycle in the coupled ocean–sea ice–atmosphere system
Polar oceans and sea-ice regions are global hot spots for the production of biogenic volatile methylated sulfur (VMS) compounds: dimethyl sulfide (DMS) and methanethiol (MeSH). VMS compounds make important contributions to atmospheric particle formation and cloud property modulation, especially when polar atmospheres are pristine. As a result, the polar biogenic sulfur cycle may induce significant climate feedback in response to ongoing sea ice d…
Polar primary aerosols across the ocean-sea ice-snow-atmosphere interface
Primary aerosols play a critical role in polar climate systems, influencing cloud formation, precipitation, radiative balance, and surface energy budgets. This paper provides a comprehensive synthesis of primary aerosol sources, transformation and removal processes, and broader atmospheric impacts in polar regions, emphasizing their links to ocean and sea ice biogeochemistry. These aerosols (including sea salt, primary organic aerosol, and primar…
‘I want food to be tasty and healthy’
Ensuring that children and adolescents receive adequate nutrition is a cornerstone of public health globally, supporting their growth, development, and long-term well-being, but not enough is known about children and adolescents’ perspectives on nutrition. The aim of this study was to obtain the perceptions and attitudes of school-aged children and adolescents (4–18 years) on existing models and approaches to food education and food messages. Dat…
Investigating the healthiness of food products on promotion
Purpose The purpose of this study is to investigate the proportionality of market brand (MB) foods versus supermarket own brand (OB) foods sold on promotion and to compare their healthiness. Design/methodology/approach An existing dataset containing nutritional information about a variety of foods on promotion ( n = 6,776) from 48 stores across 8 retail chains in Northern Ireland (NI) was reanalysed. Product healthiness was measured using a score…
Parent and child perspectives on family out-of-home eating
Objective To (i) explore the factors influencing family out-of-home (OH) eating events and (ii) identify possible opportunities for food businesses to support families in making healthier OH choices. Design Focus group discussions were conducted with parents (six to eight participants per group) and friendship pair discussions (informal interviews with two children who are friends) were conducted with children (5–12 years) throughout the island o…
