Title of the Page: The Psychological Impact of Advertising on the Customer Behavior
Editor, Date: Communications of the IBIMA, Volume 3, 2008
Description of the Page :

Advertising plays a major role in modern life. It
shapes the attitudes of the society and the
individual and inevitably influences customer
behaviour. The customer has to contend with a
huge amount of information and be able to make a
choice, draw conclusions and make important
decisions. The most important task for a business
advertising itself is to present its product in such a
manner that the whole environment around the
buyer turns into a positive emotional stimulus. The
main goal of advertising a certain product or
service is to attract the customer’s attention and
analyse the impact of advertising on customer
behaviour, which is determined by a multitude of
aspects, although the psychological-cognitive,
emotional and behavioural-ones play the most
important role.
Keywords: advertising, impact of advertising,
customer behaviour, psychological aspects.

Title of the Page: Psychoanalysis and the Advertising Industry
Editor, Date: On Sphere, October 2012
Description of the Page :

As members of a consumer society we are continuously bombarded by images that are intended to sell goods or services to us. We are forever persuaded to purchase commodities that we don’t essentially need for survival, but rather commodities that will gratify our desires. In order to understand the way our consumer society works and how this persuasion is achieved, we need to consider the history behind capitalism, and in particular how psychoanalysis techniques have been used by the advertising industry to sustain and increase consumer demands for commodities.

Editor, Date: National Eating DIsorders Association
Description of the Page :

Many of those who struggle with eating disorders have a co-occurring condition, such as anxiety, substance abuse, obsessive-compulsive disorder, depression, or post-traumatic stress disorder. All conditions should be identified and treated by someone with expertise in both eating disorders and any co-occurring conditions.

Title of the Page: BULLYING AND EATING DISORDERS
Editor, Date: National Eating Disorders Association
Description of the Page :

The harmful effects of bullying have received increased attention in recent years, starting an important national conversation. Bullying can lead to low self-esteem, social isolation, poor body image, and has also been shown to directly contribute to the development of eating disorders. In fact, as many as 65 percent of people with eating disorders say bullying contributed to their condition. 

Bullying at school can begin at a very young age and children in higher weight bodies are 63 percent more likely to be teased than their thinner peers. For this reason, it’s critical that weight shaming needs to be a significant part of anti-bullying discussions, particularly in the context of the widespread anti-obesity messaging.

Approximately 40 percent of higher weight kids are teased about their weight by peers or family members. Families can also play an important role in shutting down teasing. Weight-based teasing at home can lead to binge eating, weight gain, and extreme weight control measures. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released guidelines for pediatricians and parents to help young people avoid both the development of eating disorders and obesity.

Title of the Page: WEIGHT STIGMA
Editor, Date: National Eating Disorders Association
Description of the Page :

Weight stigma, also known as weight bias or weight-based discrimination, is discrimination or stereotyping based on a person’s weight. Weight stigma can increase body dissatisfaction, a leading risk factor in the development of eating disorders. The best-known environmental contributor to the development of eating disorders is the sociocultural idealization of thinness.

It is never acceptable to discriminate against someone based on their size, but shaming, blaming, and “concern trolling” happen everywhere – at work, school, in the home, and even at the doctor’s office. In fact, weight discrimination occurs more frequently than gender or age discrimination.

Despite its unfortunate prevalence, weight stigma is dangerous and can increase the risk for adverse psychological and behavioral issues, including depression, poor body image and binge eating.

Title of the Page: BODY IMAGE & EATING DISORDERS
Editor, Date: National Eating Disorders Association
Description of the Page :

Body image is defined as one’s thoughts, perceptions, and attitudes about their physical appearance. How do you see yourself and feel about your body (e.g., height, shape, and weight) when you look in the mirror?

Positive body image is a clear, true perception of your shape; seeing the various parts of your body as they really are. Body positivity (or body satisfaction) involves feeling comfortable and confident in your body, accepting your natural body shape and size, and recognizing that physical appearance say very little about one’s character and value as a person. 

A negative body image, on the other hand, involves a distorted perception for one’s shape. Negative body image (or body dissatisfaction) involves feelings of shame, anxiety, and self-consciousness. People who experience high levels of body dissatisfaction feel their bodies are flawed in comparison to others, and these folks are more likely to suffer from feelings of depression, isolation, low self-esteem, and eating disorders. While there is no single cause of eating disorders, research indicates that body dissatisfaction is the best-known contributor to the development of anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa (Stice, 2002)

Title of the Page: Amazon and Walmart are in an all-out price war that is terrifying America’s biggest brands
Editor, Date: vox.com, Recode, Mar 30, 2017
Description of the Page :

Grocery suppliers are feeling the squeeze — big-time.

Last month, Walmart gathered some of America’s biggest household brands near its Arkansas headquarters for a tough talk. For years, Walmart had dominated the retail landscape on the back of its “Everyday Low Price” guarantee. But now, Walmart was too often getting beaten on price.

So company executives were there, in part, to reset expectations with Walmart’s suppliers — the consumer brands whose chips, sodas and diapers line the shelves of its Supercenters and its website.

Walmart wants to have the lowest price on 80 percent of its sales, according to a presentation the company made at the summit, which Recode reviewed.

To accomplish that, the brands that sell their goods through Walmart would have to cut their wholesale prices or make other cost adjustments to shave at least 15 percent off. In some cases, vendors say they would lose money on each sale if they met Walmart’s demands.

Title of the Page: Everything we know about Haven, the Amazon joint venture to revamp health care
Editor, Date: CNBC, MAR 13 2019
Description of the Page :

- Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway and J.P. Morgan have a non-profit called “Haven,” which is aimed at improving health care for their 1.2 million combined employees. 

- Here’s what we know about it so far. 

- The company just made its latest hire: Sandhya Rao as a VP of clinical strategy.

What happened when Warren Buffett, Jamie Dimon and Jeff Bezos, technology’s biggest power player, got together to try to disrupt health care?

The market went absolutely bonkers.

In January of 2018, three corporate giants -- Amazon, Berkshire Hathaway and J.P. Morgan -- announced that they wanted to do something about the problem of rising health care costs for their employees and a lack of improvement in care. In response to that news, health care stocks shed billions in value. CVS Health, Walmart, Cardinal Health and Express Scripts were among those affected.
