Effect of color on expected and experienced refreshment, intensity, and liking of beveragesDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Upper Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Am J Psychol 116:633-47. 2003..Intensity ratings also varied with color. However, unlike when subjects smell solutions rather than taste them, colored solutions were not judged as more intense than colorless ones. In fact, the clear solutions were judged as strongest...- Protection for the good: subcategorization reduces hedonic contrastDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Upper Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Appetite 38:175-80. 2002..The analogous phenomenon was found in Study 2, comparing subjects who subcategorized beers to subjects who had a common category for both sorts of beers. Contrast is greatest for stimuli in a common category... - Categorization reduces the effect of context on hedonic preferenceDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Atten Percept Psychophys 71:1228-32. 2009..Those categories have smaller hedonic ranges than does the full stimulus set. The increase in preference magnitude with reduction in size of the hedonic range is predicted by Parducci's (1995) range-frequency model... - Color enhances orthonasal olfactory intensity and reduces retronasal olfactory intensityBrian J Koza
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Chem Senses 30:643-9. 2005..This supports previous reports that retronasal and orthonasal odors are perceived differently... - The effect of stress on men's food selectionDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Appetite 49:696-9. 2007..Women tended to eat more grapes when not stressed than when stressed and more M&Ms when stressed than when not stressed. Thus, the effect of stress level on food choice is different for men and women... - Neatness counts. How plating affects liking for the taste of foodDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, United States
Appetite 57:642-8. 2011..Neatness of the food presentation increases liking for the taste of the food by suggesting greater care on the part of the preparer. Two mechanisms by which greater care might increase liking are discussed... - Increased hedonic differences despite increases in hedonic rangeDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, New Jersey, USA
Atten Percept Psychophys 72:1261-5. 2010..It also differs from the reduction in perceived differences that usually accompanies expansion of stimulus range and that is predicted by numerous theories... - Masculinity/femininity of fine fragrances affects color-odor correspondences: a case for cognitions influencing cross-modal correspondencesDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Chem Senses 33:211-22. 2008..Thinking of the masculinity/femininity of a fragrance influences the selection of colors that corresponds to these odors... - Contextual influences on liking and preferenceDebra A Zellner
Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Appetite 49:679-82. 2007.... - Hedonic contrast and condensation: good stimuli make mediocre stimuli less good and less differentDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 13:235-9. 2006..Thus the same stimulus set produced contrast in Experiment 1 and condensation in Experiment 2, paralleling results in loudness... - Food selection changes under stressDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, NJ 07043, USA
Physiol Behav 87:789-93. 2006..They report eating these foods to feel better. Both studies show that stress not only increases consumption in certain individuals but also shifts their food choice from lower fat to higher fat foods... - Disconfirmed hedonic expectations produce perceptual contrast, not assimilationDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, NJ 07043, USA
Am J Psychol 117:363-87. 2004..When social influence is not a factor and subjects give judgments influenced only by the perceived hedonic value of the stimulus, contrast is the result... - Chocolate craving and the menstrual cycleDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Upper Montclair, NJ 07043 USA
Appetite 42:119-21. 2004..The results suggest a cultural origin rather than a physiological basis for chocolate craving... - Compared to what? Effects of categorization on hedonic contrastDebra A Zellner
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Upper Montclair, New Jersey 07043, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 10:468-73. 2003..Stimuli's hedonic ratings were far less affected by other stimuli declared to belong to a different category than by stimuli declared to belong to a common category... - The categorization effect in hedonic contrast: experts differ from novicesLauren M Rota
Department of Psychology, Montclair State University, Montclair, New Jersey 07043, USA
Psychon Bull Rev 14:179-83. 2007..Experts, however, viewed the irises and the orchids as being in different categories; therefore, hedonic contrast did not occur...
