Intuitionen von Verbraucher*innen bei der Auswahl veganer Lebensmittelsubstitute (BestMasters)
by Katharina ScheuererDie heutzutage übliche Ernährung in den Industriestaaten zeichnet sich durch einen hohen Anteil tierischer Produkte, welcher Ernährungsempfehlungen weit übersteigt, aus. Da der Konsum von Lebensmittel tierischen Ursprungs in diesem Ausmaß nicht nur zu gesundheitlichen Problemen führen kann, sondern aufgrund der gängigen Produktionspraktiken auch erheblich zur Umweltverschmutzung beiträgt, gilt er als nicht nachhaltig. Diesen Herausforderungen wird die relativ neue Produktgruppe der veganen Lebensmittelsubstitute gerecht, die nicht nur als gesund, sondern auch als nachhaltig gelten. Diese Zusammenhänge zwischen Gesundheit, Nachhaltigkeit und einer pflanzlichen Ernährung sind den Verbraucher*innen zunehmend bewusst, dennoch weisen vegane Lebensmittelsubstitute noch vergleichsweise niedrige Marktanteile auf. Die Laientheorien der ,,Unhealthy = Tasty Intuition‘‘ und der ,,Ethical = Less Strong Intuition‘‘, welche das Kaufverhalten nachweislich beeinflussen, bieten einen vielversprechenden Erklärungsansatz hierfür. Mittels zweier IATs und Selbstbeurteilung werden diese Intuitionen auf implizitem und explizitem Niveau erhoben.

Intuitive Expertise and Financial Decision-Making (Routledge Focus on Accounting and Auditing)
by Michael Grant Fredrik NilssonThis book provides insights into the hidden role of intuitive expertise in financial decision-making. The authors show and discuss how expertise combined with intuitive judgments positively affect decision-making outcomes. The book builds on the latest academic studies in this emergent field. In combination with the academic perspective, the authors provide a field study that they conducted in the context of mergers and acquisitions (M&As), a common and critical strategic investment for companies. The interviews were carried out with experts and decision-makers in large and successful international companies (i.e., M&A experts, CEOs, CFOs, and board members). The book provides a solid theoretical and empirically based grounding of the topic. In addition, it offers suggestions to practitioners on how they can develop and nurture intuitive expertise in strategic investment decision-making. The report of the field study provides examples and quotes from interviews to visualize findings, thus helping practitioners gain understanding and insights from the text. The authors also discuss the downsides of intuitive expertise, such as biases and flawed decision-making. For scholars, students, and professionals, the book offers a concise and up-to-date summary of an emergent stream of research, exploring how cognition and judgment affect financial decision-making.

The Intuitive Mind
by Sadler-Smith EugeneThis new agenda for the managerial mind will change the way you think and do business. Eugene Sadler-Smith, a leading intuition researcher and educator in business and management, argues that human beings have one brain but two minds - analytical and intuitive. Management has overlooked the importance of intuition, and under-exploited the potential that the intuitive mind has to contribute in areas as diverse as decision making, creativity, team working, entrepreneurship, business ethics and leadership. "The Intuitive Mind is a fascinating and practical book that will maximize your intuition and help you make better decisions today and predictions about tomorrow! Sigmund Freud and Carl Jung would most assuredly approve. " Steve W. Martin, www. heavyhitterwisdom. com Heavy Hitter Sales Psychology: How to Penetrate the C-Level Executive Suite and Convince Company Leaders to Buy "Eugene Sadler-Smith gives needed attention to the intuitive way of thinking and reminds us that leadership is an art as well as a science.

Invading the Private: State Accountability and New Investigative Methods in Europe (Routledge Revivals)
by Stewart Field Caroline PelserFirst published in 1998, this volume seeks to examine a range of policing techniques which are new, if not in their conception, then at least in their importance to the form of police enquiries in the late 20th century. Some of them are beginning to be discussed under categories of 'proactive' or 'covert' policing: others are termed 'technological' because they depend intimately on the development of the new information technologies. In much of Western Europe and North America the nature of police investigative methods is being transformed. At the centre of these developments are three main trends. First, there is the increasing use of covert intelligence-gathering techniques such as participating informers, police undercover operations and surveillance proactively targeted at ‘suspicious’ individuals or networks. Secondly, there is the development of increasingly sophisticated information gathering and processing technologies (DNA) and fingerprint data bases, general intelligence storage systems, computer analysis of open source data, the Internet). Lastly there is an extending exploitation of powers to compel private individuals and companies to provide the state with information about themselves and third parties (including the use of information originally supplied to the state for purposes other than criminal investigation). This book argues that in different ways these trends represent a new invasion of the private sphere by investigative methods and a new challenge for traditional mechanisms for rendering the state’s policing accountable such as the trial, the judge and the defence lawyer. Bringing together contributions from sociologists and lawyers in Western Europe and North America, it surveys these developments, considers the regulatory options for their control and their implications for legal principles of privacy and due process.
