This study aims to (i) test the behavior bias of gamblers fallacy occurs at the time of uptrend and downtrend conditions; (ii) test the behavior bias of halo effect occurs at the time of uptrend and downtrend conditions; and (iii) test the behavior bias of familiarity effect occurs at the time of uptrend and downtrend conditions. The number of samples in the study was as many as 41 people. The test equipment used is One-Sample t-Test and Paired t-Test by using statistical package for social scientists (SPSS) as a static test tool. The results of this study show that: (i) Gamblers' fallacy that occurs when the uptrend condition is greater than when the condition is downtrend; (ii) Halo effect that occurs when the uptrend condition is greater than when the downtrend condition; (iii) Familiarity effect that occurs when the uptrend condition is greater than when the downtrend condition.

Research on the Beauty-is-Good stereotype shows that unattractive people are perceived to have worse moral character than attractive individuals. Yet research has not explored what kinds of moral character judgments are particularly biased by attractiveness. In this work, we tested whether attractiveness particularly biases moral character judgments pertaining to the moral domain of purity, beyond a more general halo effect. Across four preregistered studies ( N = 1,778), we found that unattractive (vs. attractive) individuals were judged to be more likely to engage in purity violations compared with harm violations and that this was not due to differences in perceived moral wrongness, weirdness, or sociality between purity and harm violations. The findings shed light on how physical attractiveness influences moral character attributions, suggesting that physical attractiveness particularly biases character judgments pertaining to the moral domain of purity.

PurposeWhile research shows that organic labels are perceived positively for most food products, the findings are more ambiguous for wine. This may be due to the complexity of the product. Accordingly, the labelling effect might be influenced by people's prior knowledge of wines and their attitudes towards organic wines and thus be more pronounced for certain consumer groups. Providing insights into those moderators could help to steer people towards sustainable wine consumption. Therefore, this paper aims to investigate the effect of organic labelling on consumers' liking of, and their willingness to pay (WTP) for white wine, and the role of potential moderators.Design/methodology/approachA wine tasting experiment was conducted using a within-subjects design (n = 214). The mediating role of expected liking and the moderating roles of subjective knowledge and attitude towards organic wine were analysed using the MEMORE macro in SPSS.FindingsThe results do not confirm an overall positive halo effect of labelling on liking of organic wine. Nevertheless, a positive halo effect on actual liking was observed for those respondents who have a positive attitude towards organic wine. Furthermore, an overall positive effect of organic labelling on WTP was found. Mediation effects could not be confirmed.Originality/valueThis study used an experimental design that considers not only expected liking but also actual liking and WTP for organic wines. Using a moderation-mediation framework helps to better understand consumers' quality evaluation and WTP for organic wine. Finally, it could be shown that the organic halo is more complex for the product category of wine than others have previously stated.

The ontology of time and space has always been a subject of materialist prospectus bearing a halo effect of ‘modernity’ and ‘progress’. The enquiry into the sign of modern is a mechanical category of production where substantial copies of ‘progress’ have religiously been equated with a break from the past. This breaking away from the centre (soul) is, of course, associated with a desire for the non-native design. Simultaneously, the past becomes historicized as primitive dangers while the present/‘modern’ morphs into a non-past spectacular diffusion. Satyajit Ray reloads his artillery of the cerebral one last time in his masterpiece titled, Agantuk (The Stranger), where he pits the idea of a spectral past having an agency to redo the class binary against the totalitarian time(s) in a modern urban space which prides itself on the abuse of power-as-civility. Ray introduces a nuclear family of three (a married couple and their son) where the protagonist, Manmohan Mitra, returns as an archived data in the body of a forgotten relative. His entry into the house ruptures the canny knots of the ‘home’ where the director exposes limits of the modernized time. This paper tries to analyze how Ray uses the motif of ‘travel’ in its cinematic cloth to critique the ingestion of global progress as nothing but an accumulation of fallen spectacles that commodify both a subject who is consuming the object-in-time (progress) and also the object that is all the time getting alienated from its own subjective merit. Mitra becomes the mouthpiece of the director for conveying the paradoxes of time-as-capital in the burgeoning of speculative modernity.

Many prints are coated to increase their resistance or to enhance their appearance. Applying a smooth transparent layer on a print darkens and saturates its color, an easily observable effect which can be predicted in order to obtain better color management of coated surfaces and ink saving. A model was thus developed which describes the reflectance of a single-ink line halftone in optical contact with a transparent smooth coating. It is based on the peculiar way light diffuses inside the coating layer, a phenomenon called the “halo effect”. The model was compared to two experiments conducted at different scales where line halftones were coated with different coating thicknesses. The experiments enabled us to identify and measure the darkening effect caused by a coating layer, and validated the model.

Pork color is a major indicator of product quality that guides consumerpurchasing decisions. Recently, industry has received an increase in consumercomplaints about the lightness and non-uniformity of ham color, primarilylighter color in the periphery termed “ham halo” that is not caused bymanufacturing procedures. This effect is seen in fresh and processed hams andthe outer, lighter muscle is associated with lower myoglobin concentration, pHand type I fibers. The objective of this study was to identify differences ingene expression profiles between light and normal colored portions of biceps femoris muscle from pork hams.RNA-sequencing was performed for paired light and normal colored muscle samplesfrom 10 animals showing the ham halo effect. Over 50 million paired-end reads(2x75bp) per library were obtained. An average of 99.74% of trimmed high-qualityreads were mapped to the Sscrofa 11.1 genome assembly. Differentially expressedgenes (DEGs) were identified using both the DESeq2 and GFOLD software packages.A total of 14,049 genes were expressed in bicepsfemoris; 13,907 were expressed in both light and normal muscle, while 56and 86 genes were only expressed in light and normal muscle, respectively. Analysiswith DESeq2 identified 392 DEGs with 359 genes being more highly expressed innormal colored muscle. A total of 61 DEGs were identified in the DESeq2analysis and also were identified in at least 7 of the 10 individual animalanalyses. All 61 of these DEGs were up-regulated in normal colored muscle. Geneontology (GO) enrichment analysis of DEGs identified the transition betweenfast and slow fibers, and skeletal muscle adaptation and contraction as themost significant biological process terms. The evaluation of gene expression byRNA-Seq identified DEGs between regions of the biceps femoris with the ham halo effect that are associated with thevariation in pork color.
