Here are my Research Blogging Editors Selections for this week:
- Is there a relationship between the taste of certain foods and moral decision-making? Maybe. At The Jury Room: Make them eat brussel sprouts.
- In a somewhat related post, Dr. Stu of his eponymous blog asks if your music selection can make your food taste better or worse. The answer might surprise you.
- What is the relationship between conscious awareness and the experience of pain? Flavia di Pietro of Body in Mind explores the question. Nociception by any other name will hurt, or not hurt, just as much.
- Finally, and for the second week in a row, another great post from eHarmony Labs. Is your partner snooping? And if so, could it be your own fault?
