“…Similarly, addictive food consumption and disordered eating share several psychological constructs including reward dysfunction, craving, emotion dysregulation, and impulsivity (Schulte, Grilo, & Gearhardt, 2016). A model testing study, using the theory of planned behavior (TPB) and the selfcongruity theory, indicated that individual factors (e.g., emotional states, psychopathological problems) and sociodemographic factors (e.g., gender, age, education level) should be associated with food addiction (Farah & Shahzad, 2020).…”

Background and aims To date, a number of studies have investigated the prevalence and correlates of addictive food consumption. However, these studies have mostly relied on models that comprised a narrow range of variables in often small and heterogenous samples. The purpose of the present study was to comprehensively examine the measurement aspects, the prevalence, and the psychological correlates of addictive eating among a largescale national sample of Turkish adults. Method Participants (N = 24,380, 50% men, M age = 31.79 years, age range = 18–81 years) completed a battery of tests including the Food Addiction Risk Questionnaire (FARQ), the Brief Symptom Inventory, the Toronto Alexithymia Scale, the Positive and Negative Affect Schedule, and the Experiences in Close Relationships-Revised. Results According to analyses conducted, the FARQ had a uni-dimensional factor structure. Based on Item Response Theory (IRT) calculated cut-off scores, 2.3% of the participants were at risk of addictive eating patterns, whilst criteria varied in their discriminating ability. The correlates of addictive food consumption were being male, being younger, having lower education, presenting with higher alcohol use, psychiatric symptoms, alexithymia, positive/negative affect, and anxious attachment. Conclusion These results suggest that a minority of Turkish community are at risk for addictive food consumption and that adverse psychological states promote this problematic behavior.

“…To select the sample of the Basque Country retailer, a combination of convenience sampling and the snowball sampling procedure was used. While this study acknowledges the limitations related to the use of such data collection methods, these methodologies are used and accepted in the academic literature (Farah & Shahzad, 2020) when there are time and cost constraints and when it is necessary for a study to investigate a certain group. Moreover, these sampling methods were addressed by following Raschke, Krishen, Kachroo, and Maheshwari's (2013) recommendations.…”

Corporate social responsibility (CSR) is presently one of the most interesting topics in the field of consumer behavior. However, not enough is known about the underlying mechanisms that explain how and when consumer CSR perceptions shape consumer behaviors such as loyalty. The present study proposes and demonstrates that CSR positively influences consumer loyalty through two mediators (how), which are gratitude ‐an emotion‐ and commitment ‐an attitude‐; regional identity is also introduced for the first time as a moderator on those relationships (when). Two studies, based on two different consumer samples with reference to two different food retailers, are conducted to test these hypotheses. The results support the hypotheses and prove the mediation effects. Furthermore, they provide evidence of how consumers' regional identity moderates the model's indirect effects and they also reveal the conditional nature of these effects. This study's outcomes have theoretical contributions and implications for marketers.

“…All constructs and variables were tested for both convergent validity and discriminant validity. For reliability purposes, "measures of composite reliability (CR) and the average variance extracted (AVE) values were considered" (Farah & Shahzad, 2020). To accept the convergent validity of all variables, "the cut-off value of the CR for all variables must be above .60, and the AVE values above .50" (Sekaran & Bougie, 2013, p. 160).…”

This article provides an overview of some recent findings on consumer attitudes and other vital antecedents of purchase intention of branded meat. Based on a sample of 349 respondents in Pakistan, this study tests a model including factors associated with branded meat purchase intentions. SPSS, version 21.0 (Statistical Package for Social Sciences) and AMOS (Analysis of Moment Structure) were used for data analysis. Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a statistical modeling method of analysis that enables the testing of a series of separate yet, interrelated constructs and regression equations, allowing for the study of multiple relationships at once. Consumer attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control are the most critical factors in forming consumers’ intentions toward buying and consuming branded meat. The overall mediating role of brand trust is less driven by subjective norms and perceived behavioral control, more by consumer attitude than branded meat products. The findings can help public policymakers and managers to understand consumers’ branded meat purchase tendencies and help promote healthier consumption habits.
