TI - Slow down!: insensitivity to rate of consumption leads to avoidable satiation SN - 00935301 AV - HF5415.3 JOU PY - 2013/// CY - Oxford PB - Oxford University Press KW - Satiation KW - Consumers KW - Habituation N2 - Consumers often choose how quickly to consume things they enjoy. The research presented here demonstrates that they tend to consume too rapidly, growing tired of initially well-liked stimuli such as a favorite snack (experiments 1 and 4) or an enjoyable video game (experiments 2 and 3) more quickly than they would if they slowed consumption. The results also demonstrate that such overly rapid consumption results from a failure to appreciate that longer breaks between consumption episodes slow satiation. The results present a paradox: Participants who choose their own rate of consumption experience less pleasure than those who have a slower rate of consumption chosen for them UR - https://doi.org/10.1086/666597 ER -
