Abstract:
Molti studi nel campo del comportamento di consumo hanno sottolineato il ruolo fondamentale che le emozioni esercitano sul comportamento. La maggioranza dei nostri comportamenti è guidata da risposte emozionali all’ambiente. Allo scopo di comprendere il comportamento di consumo è cruciale indagare cosa siano le emozioni, come possano essere misurate ed elicitate, e come queste possano direttamente influenzare il comportamento. Le emozioni possono essere elicitate da diversi stimoli sensoriali. Precedenti studi di psicologia e neurofisiologia hanno usato esclusivamente stimoli affettivi visivi

Abstract:
L’alimentation maternelle conditionne la santé métabolique et cardiovasculaire de la progéniture, mais l’impact sur les systèmes sensoriels reste peu étudié. L’olfaction joue un rôle comportemental crucial pour l’évitement des dangers et pour la prise alimentaire. Dès le plus jeune âge, les odeurs participent à l’établissement des préférences alimentaires, qui influencent les habitudes alimentaires de l’adulte. Le système olfactif repose sur le fonctionnement de neurones qui se développent pendant la vie embryonnaire, continuent leur maturation après la naissance et sont continuellement régéné

Abstract:
Olfactory function is affected by demographic, cognitive, and genetic factors. In the present thesis, three empirical studies investigated individual differences in olfactory ability. Study I explored demographic and cognitive correlates in common olfactory tasks; odor detection, odor discrimination, and odor identification. The results indicated that old age influenced performance negatively in all tasks, and that semantic memory proficiency and executive functioning were related to odor discrimination and odor identification performance. No cognitive influence was observed for measurements o

Abstract:
Predation by olfactory meso-predators has a large impact on avian nest success, particularly for ground-nesting waterfowl. Olfactory predators rely on odors to locate their prey. Weather conditions (e.g. wind speed, humidity, and temperature), vegetation, and landscape features affect the dissipation rate of odors and could affect the foraging efficiency of olfactory predators. I conducted 2 studies to determine if weather and landscape impact predator foraging ability and behavior: a predator survey study and an artificial nest study. The objective of the predator survey was to investigate ho

Abstract:
Pax-6 and X-dll3 are homeobox-containing transcription factors that are expressed in developing anterior neural structures in Xenopus. Characterization of multiple Xenopus Pax-6 cDNAs reveals that they fall into four distinct classes. These classes are defined based on the presence or absence of a 42 base pair sequence in the paired box, and the presence or absence of a 151 base pair sequence located downstream of the homeobox. Transcripts containing the 151 base pair sequence encode a highly conserved form of Pax-6, and are referred to as Xenopus A variants. Transcripts lacking the 151 base p

Abstract:
Infectious disease transmission is driven by a complex suite of drivers with behavior and landscape dynamics contributing to epidemics across host-pathogen systems. However, our understanding of the interaction between landscape, behavior, and infectious disease remains limited. In the banded mongoose (Mungos mungo), a novel tuberculosis pathogen, Mycobacterium mungi, has emerged in Northern Botswana that is transmitted through olfactory communication behaviors. Using this host-pathogen system, this thesis explores the influence of various land use areas along the human-wildlife interface on a

Abstract:
Smell is arguably the most impactful of the 5 senses since scent has close ties with emotion and memory. As a result many retailers infuse their stores with scents to alter a consumer’s impression of the environment. However, to date very little research has investigated whether scent can alter an individual’s perception of crowdedness. Spatial crowding is a huge issue for many stores because a crowded environment can induce anxiety and negative emotions in consumers. Thus, the present study examines whether scent can be used to impact a consumer’s perception of spatial crowding, and whether s
