                            Facing the food of the future
                                        Insects are often termed the "food of the future," as they are a healthy and more sustainable alternative to conventional protein sources. But are we ready to face this new culinary frontier?

                                        In Faux Out-Of-Home (FOOH) advertisement, real-world images are combined with computer-generated imagery and shared on social media. What happens to consumers' perceptions and emotions when you disclose that AI was used?

                                        Generation Z has the shortest attention span for commercials, yet they are becoming an increasingly important market segment. Understanding what captures their interest and how to engage them in commercials is crucial.

                            From start to finish: decreasing abandonment when self-designing a product
                                        Research shows that we like to design your own products, but often abandon the process before we're done. Does it help to provide feedback, and if so, what type of feedback works best?

                            Design your own product: consumer experience and abandonment behavior
                                        Researchers Krause and Franke studied how our experiences change while designing our own products. How do these experiences influence whether we finish a product or abandon the process?

                            Just the way I want it: a study on consumer experience in self-designing
                                        Consumer research suggests that you value a product more when you design it yourself - like sneakers or a gift. So, why do we abandon the self-design process so often?
