Examining attitudes toward a proposed sugar-sweetened beverage tax among urban Indigenous adults: a qualitative study using a decolonizing lens
CMAJ Open. 2023 Oct 10;11(5):E922-E931. doi: 10.9778/cmajo.20230025. Print 2023 Sep-Oct.ABSTRACTBACKGROUND: Sugar-sweetened beverage taxation has been proposed as a public health policy to reduce consumption, and compared with other ethnic or racialized groups in Canada, off-reserve Indigenous populations consume sugar-sweetened beverages at higher frequencies and quantities. We sought to explore the acceptability and anticipated outcomes of a tax on sugar-sweetened beverages among Indigenous adults residing in an inner-city Canadian neighbourhood.METHODS: Using a community-based participatory research approach, we conduct...

When it comes to taxes, ownership intuitions abide by the law
We report data here suggesting that people's intuitions track law very closely, and are unaffected by manipulating a P() tag input. We propose two hypotheses to explain this finding.PMID:37813429 | DOI:10.1017/S0140525X23001206 (Source: The Behavioral and Brain Sciences)
