Does Thinking “Outside of the Box” Make People Feel “Full”? the Influence of Consumer Creativity on Satiation For Unhealthy Foods

In particular, we predict that creativity can elicit a divergent mindset that may increase the heterogeneity of a consideration choice set, which will, in turn, accelerate the satiation rate for unhealthy foods.
