Abstract Consumers are widely adopting Artificially Intelligent Voice Assistants (AIVAs). AIVAs now handle many different everyday tasks and also increasingly assisting consumers with purchasing decisions, making a rich topic for marketing researchers. We develop series of propositions regarding how consumer decision-making processes may change when moved from traditional online purchase environments to AI-powered voice-based dialogs, in the hopes encouraging further academic thinking...
ABSTRACT The nutrient composition of Spring and Fall lambs were investigated. Seven retail cuts from carcasses raised under commercial conditions, representing two age groups (4–4½ mo 8–9 mo) analyzed in both raw cooked form. Separable lean meat was for proximate composition, 8 vitamins, inorganic nutrients, cholesterol 12 fatty acids. Except moisture, total lipid, riboflavin, niacin, Zn Fe, there no practical differences nutrients between or groups. Thiamin had the lowest cooking retention...
The purpose of this study was to qualitatively explore clinical instructors' (CIs) perceptions students' behaviors that comprise entry-level performance, as well how those were integrated into their decision making.The participants 21 physical therapists who CIs for therapist students.Using a grounded theory approach, we conducted interviews, asking the question, "What is it about performance makes you see them therapists?" We determined common themes among interviews and developed schema...
ABSTRACT The nutrient composition of fresh pork was studied in samples from 71 carcasses. On separable lean, determined for 7 raw retail cuts one side each 11 carcasses, and retention on the matching other that had been cooked by common household methods. Loins 60 additional carcasses were analyzed to determine whether USDA grades 1, 2, 3 region production affected composition. data indicated variation is more dependent cut within carcass than either grade or carcass. Cooking method...
Informal caregiving is a critical component of the US long-term care system, but can have significant negative impacts on caregiver employment, finances, and well-being. An online survey Colorado caregivers was piloted in 2016–17 to explore whether workplace social policies such as access paid family leave public health insurance buffer financial help remain workforce. Using standardized measures, assessed caregivers' employment status, well-being (physical mental health, strain, benefits...
The Behavioral Life‐Cycle hypothesis (Thaler & Shefrin, ) models consumers as having both impatient “doer” preferences, representing their desire to spend now, and patient “planner” long‐run welfare considerations. suggests that those with doer preferences may benefit from strategies constrain present behavior promote saving for the future, like automating deposits into savings accounts. We analyze over 4,000 responses nationally representative National Financial Well‐Being Survey (a)...
The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has authority over several consumer financial protection laws that include mandatory disclosures to provide consumers with the information needed make decisions. Mandatory disclosure is a common regulatory tool presents opportunities support in their decision making; however, many aspects of effectiveness remain understudied. CFPB committed studying better inform policy makers about whether and how best use achieve goals. This research effort...
ABSTRACT Cooking times and losses were monitored during cooking often each of eight kinds lamb roasts. Roasts cooked (163°C oven, not preheated) to be rare (60°C), medium (70°C) or well done (77°C). significantly increased with increasing degrees doneness. time recommendations made based on the data. In a second study, times, energy consumption 100 boneless legs shoulder Ovens either non‐preheated preheated roasts fresh, frozen, thawed 12 h at 21°C, 24 1°C by microwaves. Gas was slightly...
The Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program is one of the longest running programs U.S. Department Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) Office Planning (CPD). CDBG a grant to states local governments that distributed by need-based formula. Fiscal year (FY) 2012 marks first allocation formula will rely on Census Bureau’s new annual data source — American Survey (ACS) 2010 population counts. This report introduces ACS stakeholders provides detailed information how using shifts...
Lamb carcasses (n = 94) from five packing plants, selected to vary in weight class and fat thickness, were used determine retail yield labor requirements of wholesale lamb fabrication. Carcasses allotted randomly according be fabricated as whole 20), three-piece boxes 22), or subprimals 52). Processing times (seconds) recorded weights (kilograms) obtained calculate yield. Subprimals into bone-in cuts boneless semi-boneless cuts. Retail for subprimal legs decreased 85.3 ± .6% 68.0 .7% a...
Boxed pork was obtained to represent four different purchase specifications (different anatomical separation locations and[or] external fat trim levels) common in the industry conduct a study of retail yields and labor requirements. Bone-in loins (n = 180), boneless 94), Boston butts 148) were assigned randomly fabrication styles within subprimals. When comparing cutting subprimals, it evident that style affected percentage yield time. more bone-in cuts prepared from loin ranged 92.80 ± .61...
To assess retail value and profitability, cutting test data were obtained in a simulated room for boxed pork subprimals, bone-in loins (n = 180), boneless 94), Boston butts 148), fresh hams 28), 23). Processing times (seconds) weights (kilograms) used to determine relative value. Cutting style affected (P < .05) differential (US$/subprimal) loins. When styles within subprimals pooled, was by purchasing specification loins, butts, inside hams. end point produced greater percentage of gross...
Selected beef subprimals were obtained from fabrication lines of three foodservice purveyors to assist in the development a software support program for industry. Subprimals fabricated into bone-in or boneless ready-to-cook portion-sized cuts and associated components by professional meat cutters. Each subprimal was cut generate mean cutting yields labor requirements, which calculated observed weights (kilograms) processing times (seconds). Once completed, data analyzed determine means...
Beef subprimals from two different grade groups were obtained beef processors to assist in updating the Computer Assisted Retail Decision Support (CARDS) program with new fabrication styles. The consisted of Top Choice (containing carcasses a Modest or Moderate degree marbling) and Select Slight marbling). Subprimals (shoulder clod; top blade, roast; arm knuckle, peeled; outside round, flat) separated into individual muscles fabricated retail cuts by professional meat cutters. Mean cutting...
Policymakers often require disclosures to help consumers make informed decisions, despite considerable debate over disclosures' effectiveness. Traditional accounts argue that with stable preferences use become informed. In contrast, behavioral research suggests may be inattentive or construct in the moment. We contrast these context of overdraft, where can "opt in" coverage and fees. Study 1, we conjoint analysis assess perceptions whether varying circumstances should opt in. Both overdraft...
Twenty-nine selected styles of subprimals or sections veal were obtained from a commercial facility to assist in the development support program for retailers. They fabricated into bone-in boneless retail cuts and associated components by trained meat cutters. Each style (n = 6) was used generate mean yields labor requirements, which calculated wholesale weights processing times. Means standard errors ribs consisting five different 30) concluded that #2, 7-rib 4 (10 cm) x cm), had lowest...
Lamb carcass (n = 100) were selected from USDA yield grades (YG) 2, 3, and 4 weight (CW) groups 20.4 to 24.9, 25.0 29.5, 29.6 34.0 kg. fabricated into semiboneless boneless subprimals trimmed three s.c. fat trim levels: .64, .25, .00 cm of remaining. Innovative yields calculated for the dissectible components (lean, bone, connective tissue, external fat, seam fat) each various subprimals. Carcass as a main effect in two-way analysis variance did not account significant amount variation among...
