Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Thadeus L. Beekman's research investigates the influence of cognitive styles on consumer perception and behavior related to food and beverages. His work explores how analytical versus holistic thinking affects responses during sensory evaluation and eating experiences. Beekman has published on the development and validation of scales to measure food-related cognitive styles, such as the food-related analysis–holism scale (F-AHS).

His research also extends to the practicalities of sensory testing, including investigations into alternative testing environments like drive-in booths to ensure participant safety. Additionally, Beekman has examined factors that may impact sensory perception, such as the effect of personal fragrances on olfactory performance during evaluations. He has an h-index of 8 with 12 total publications and 131 citations, and has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville on multiple shared publications.
