Trait values of F1 genotypes reveal that preference for y- is largely dominant, with 97% of F1 individuals preferring y- more than the midparent value.
This suggests that preference for homogeneity is acquired.
Further, in Experiment 2 we demonstrate that preference for utilitarian actions remains when any possible text-based framing effects are removed altogether and replaced with visually immersive VR.
I am told by some leading lights that preference for one's own sort is "natural" and that minorities have been spoilt by having protective laws and "special privileges".
Hierarchical regression analyses showed that preference for interactive teaching was associated with a combination of Emotional Stability, Agreeableness, and deep learning approach.
For anyone who assumes political choices rest on a rational analysis of issues and self-interest, the notion that preference for a candidate springs from the same source as the choice of a color scheme can be disturbing.
Using hierarchical multiple regression we found that preference for immediate rewards was related to the Nonplanning impulsiveness subscale of the BIS and, after controlling for other variables, also related to intelligence.
Our approach is motivated by the Ecological Valence Theory (EVT; Palmer & Schloss, 2010) which states that preference for a given color is determined by the combined valence (liking/disliking) of all objects and events associated with that color.
These results suggest that individual dietary preferences are important even in a highly mobile species living amid abundant food, and we propose that preference for natal habitats will influence dispersal decisions in many other vertebrate taxa.
Background: Animal studies suggest that preference for relatively high concentrations of sweet solutions and lack of control over sweet solution consumption is related to a preference for alcohol over water.
If it were true that preference for snacks and sweets are correlated with poverty – that people who are not poor allocate more of their food budget to "healthy" foods – then the snacks and sweets restriction tends to make food stamps less attractive for the poor, but not less attractive for those not poor.
