AbstractProducts appearances are made of design choices influencing the way products are perceived. Products semantics is a methods used to understand and anticipate this phenomena. Nowadays, consumers consider sport products not only as “sport” but also as “health” products. Designers may then develop them as “sport-health” products. However, perception of “sport-health” products may vary according to the need to fit sport or health context of use. We present in this paper our experimental approach to understand the influence of sport and health contexts on “sport-health” semantics.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to investigate consumers’ variety perception for online grocery assortments and, more generally, to better understand consumers’ attitude toward digital assortments. In particular, this research examines the influence of the organization of products that results from assortment structure and display. Design/methodology/approach Starting from the observation that previous work on traditional assortments is not sufficient to understand consumers’ perceptions and attitudes, the paper adopts a hypothetico-deductive approach and develops four hypotheses. These hypotheses are tested using an experimental approach. Findings This research enables us to see that both attitude and variety perception are affected by the way products are organized on a website. Furthermore, contrary to what the literature on traditional assortments allows one to assume, the assortment corresponding to a more positive attitude is not perceived as being the more varied. As a result, our findings reconsider the link between variety perception and consumer assortment evaluation for digital assortments. Research limitations/implications The work is based on data collected for only one product category. It would be interesting to explore other categories also, to determine if the structure of the assortment and variety perception have stable effects. Practical implications The results inform retailers that they must carefully design the display of their digital assortments. If a retailer wants to enhance variety perception, the authors recommend using an assortment organized by brand, or presenting all the products together. If, instead, the goal is to encourage a positive attitude, the retailer should opt for assortments sorted by attribute or that present all products together. Originality/value This research adopts a new orientation on assortment perception and evaluation, considering the specificities involved in digitizing assortments. In addition, this research studies a real product category and puts respondents in experimental conditions close to reality.

На протяжении своей карьеры Раушенберг занимался живописью, скульптурой, сценографией, представлял собой тип художника не ХХ, но XXI века. Его интересовали новые технологии, стремительно менявшийся мир вокруг: политически, социально, ментально. В период становления своего стиля Раушенберг находился в поисках ответа на вопрос о природе искусства, ему был близок экспериментальный подход, вдохновленный опытами европейского искусства начала прошлого столетия. Раушенберг использовал его при создании большого проекта, который получил название «комбинированная живопись» или «комбайны» (1953–1964). Именно он открыл дорогу американскому художнику к мировой известности и признанию. Throughout his career, Rauschenberg was engaged in painting, sculpture, scenography, he was a type of artist, not XX, but the XXI century. He was interested in new technologies, the rapidly changing world around: politically, socially, mentally. In the period when his style was formed Rauschenberg searched of an answer to the question about the nature of art, he was close to the experimental approach inspired by the experiences of European art of the beginning of the last century. Rauschenberg used it to create a large project, which was called "combined painting" or "combines" (1953 – 1964). It opened the way for an American artist to world fame and recognition.

Predicting consumer behavior with attitude measures has not always been successful. It is proposed to deal directly with the attitude components. In this article one such approach is discussed, and experimental evidence is presented suggesting it is worthwhile to distinguish between the values consumers hold and the way in which they perceive the alternatives.

The authors used knapping experiments to study the way that microburins are produced. Once thought of as signature pieces of the Mesolithic, these experiments suggest that they were by-products of a gradual technological development by knappers trying to make arrowheads that had no bulb of percussion — and were thus easier to haft. They make a case for an evolution already present in the late Palaeolithic and determined by practical, rather than cultural, social or environmental imperatives.

The symposium of the 1950 General Meeting of the British Psychological Society on the use of tests in clinical psychology showed that there was considerable difference of opinion on the way in which tests could and should be used in diagnostic work. As testing is one of the main activities of psychologists working in the clinical held, it is of some importance that this discussion be continued in written form. In this way misunderstanding can be clarified and opinions fully expressed.

From the ninth to the 13th century, numerous works on pharmacology were written in Arabic in Eastern as well as in Western parts of the Islamic world. Starting from Galen and Dioscorides, the Islamic authors greatly improved on the Greek heritage. Among the theories they developed, two major trends stand out. The first trend emphasized medicinal degrees of primary qualities, and thus could lead to the promotion of mathematical rules. The second trend, on the contrary, focused on ‘the whole form’ of the substances, and opened the way to an experimental approach. Both these trends will continue in European pharmacology up to the Modern period.

This paper analyzes the way speakers perceive the transgression of the rules of word formation, particularly regarding neoclassical final combining forms, which are elements with a marked use and whose morphological combining standards are quite restrictive. This transgression consists in combining a native Catalan word and a final combining form, the result of which has been assigned an expressive value. In order to test these perceptions, we developed a questionnaire and administered it to 152 speakers of Catalan from different backgrounds. These speakers were asked to evaluate 20 neologisms documented in the Catalan press regarding their context of use and their connotations. The results show that speakers perceive that those forms that “break” the expected rules are more likely to appear in an informal or colloquial context, and they generally assign them an ironic or pejorative value. Finally, this study aims to present compounds as a promising topic of interest within morphopragmatics.

AbstractThe problem of extended fusion and identification can be approached from a diachronic perspective. Based on our own research, as well as findings from the fields of social, political, and clinical psychology, we argue that the way contemporary emotional events shape local fusion is similar to the way in which historical experiences shape extended fusion. We propose a reciprocal process in which historical events shape contemporary identities, whereas contemporary identities shape interpretations of past traumas.
