Underestimating calorie content when healthy foods are present: an averaging effect or a reference-dependent anchoring effect? by Suzanna E Forwood, Amy Ahern, Gareth J Hollands, Paul C Fletcher, Theresa M Marteau

“…<h4>Conclusion</h4>The negative calorie illusion appears to be a function of the contrast between a food being judged and a reference, supporting the hypothesis that the negative calorie illusion arises from the use of a reference-dependent anchoring and adjustment heuristic and not from an 'averaging' effect, as initially proposed. …”

Mixed-Effects Model to Assess the Effect of Disengagements on Speed of an Automated Shuttle with Sensors for Localization, Navigation, and Obstacle Detection by Abhinav Grandhi, Ninad Gore, Srinivas S. Pulugurtha

“…The automated shuttle uses sensors for localization, navigation, and obstacle detection. A multi-level mixed-effects Gaussian regression model with a log-link function was employed to analyze the effect of disengagement events on the automated shuttle speed, while accounting for control variables such as roadway geometry, weather conditions, time-of-the-day, day-of-the-week, and number of intermediate stops. …”
