    • Consumers’ evaluation and intention to buy traditional seafood: The role of vintage, uniqueness, nostalgia and involvement in luxury 

      Olsen, Svein Ottar; Skallerud, Kåre; Heide, Morten (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-10-17)

We seek to understand the moderating role of food product involvement and environmental awareness as extensions of traditional constructs such as attitudes, social norms, and perceived behavioral control. The data were derived from ...

By scrutinizing these facets, the aim is to gain deeper ...
    • A segmentation of residents' attitudes towards mariculture development in Sweden 

      Skallerud, Kåre; Armbrecht, John (Journal article; Tidsskriftartikkel; Peer reviewed, 2020-01-30)
      The farming of aquatic organisms, including fish, molluscs, crustaceans, and aquatic plants, is regarded as a promising strategy for local development (Cai et al., 2010; Cai et al., 2006; Costa-Pierce, 2016). Fresh water aquaculture is the dominant form of fish farming in Asia and is the largest component of China's aquaculture production (FAO, 2014). Mariculture, or marine aquaculture, has expanded ...
