Carry out a research on WHY CONSUMERS CHOOSE ORGANIC WINE: THE PERCEPTION OF PRODUCERS AND RETAILERS

           WHY CONSUMERS CHOOSE ORGANIC WINE: THE PERCEPTION OF PRODUCERS AND RETAILERS

Abstract

Purpose The literature is not clear on why consumers choose to buy organic wine. Most studies focus on consumers’ values and beliefs, based on greater environmental awareness and health concerns. In contrast, this study will examine the importance of organic wine’s intrinsic and extrinsic qualities to consumers.

Design/mythology/approach – The study uses a qualitative method that was undertaken to elicit the opinion of producers and retailers about the motivation of organic wine consumers. The information was obtained via semi-structured interviews and analysed by using thematic coding.

Findings – There are not a large number of organic wine buyers, and most of them also buy conventional wine, so that it can be argued that organic wine consumers are “floating” between organic and conventional wine. However, these consumers are environmentally aware, but choose between conventional and organic wine based upon their perception of the intrinsic and extrinsic qualities of the wine, mainly taste, price and quality. Sustainable qualities are “nice to have” but not paramount.

Research limitation/implications – All of the findings are based on interviews with producers and retailers. The results suggest that further research needs to be tested through a quantitative study administered to consumers.

Practical Limitations – Organic wine marketers should focus on the intrinsic and extrinsic qualities of the wine in marketing campaigns, and place less emphasis on the environmental and health aspects.

Originality/value – The results of this study are valuable because they deviate from the focus on the values and beliefs of organic wine consumers, and address the question of consumer perception of the value of organic wine as a consumption experience, based on the same factors as conventional wine.

Keywords – Organic wine, consumer behaviour, producers

Paper Type – Research Paper

When issues arise within a family unit, the family often presents with one member identified as the “problem.” However, you will frequently find that the issue is not necessarily the “problem client,” but rather dysfunctional family patterns and relationships. To better understand such patterns and relationships, and develop a family treatment plan, it is essential that the practitioner appropriately assess all family members. This requires you to have a strong foundation in family assessment and therapy.

This week, you practice assessing and diagnosing client families presenting for psychotherapy.

Learning Objectives

Students will:

• Apply concepts, theories, and principles related to patient interviewing, diagnostic reasoning, and recording patient information
• Formulate differential diagnoses for patients using DSM-5-TR criteria
• Formulate plans of care for patients that incorporate family psychotherapy interventions
• Develop psychotherapy genograms

To prepare:

• Review this week’s Learning Resources and reflect on the insights they provide on family assessment. Be sure to review the resource on psychotherapy genograms.
• Download the Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Note Template and review the requirements of the documentation. There is also an exemplar provided with detailed guidance and examples.
• View the Mother and Daughter: A Cultural Tale video in the Learning Resources and consider how you might assess the family in the case study.

Provide relevant background information about the food item and present some of the key social issues associated with that food item.

– Individual Report (20% of the final grade) Individually, each student will be responsible for writing a report about one food system issue related to their food item. Write a 1500-word report that outlines and analyzes one of the issues from your proposal. This is to be completed independently. Each paper topic should be unique. It is not sufficient to simply describe the stage of the food system or food chain. For example, it is not sufficient to simply describe how coffee is produced or processed. You will find that each stage of the food system/food supply chain will have any number of sub-issues. Think about the social implications of each topic. Think about: Who are the winners and losers during the production of the food item? Who holds the power in the processing of your item? What knowledges are considered most important and valuable during the promotion or marketing of your food item? As in the proposal, each group member is to select one stage of the food system/food supply chain, focus on a specific topic within that stage of the food system and write an analytical paper about it, on their own. Avoid overlap of topics between group members. Each group member should have a different topic. This way, each student can contribute new and unique knowledge to the group presentation. The goal is for each of you to contribute to an overall “big picture” of the food system for the food item you are researching. Content and style requirements: The writing of an assignment from a sociological perspective requires the primary use of scholarly sources, such as scholarly journals, or books. The report should be approximately 1,500 words (+/-) 50 words. The abstract is included in this word count. This word count does NOT include the title page or bibliography. Please use the format in the chart below to structure your paper. Use Times New Roman, 12-point font size, and double line spacing. You are required to include a full reference list of all materials used in the paper. • Sources of Evidence: At least four scholarly sources (peer-reviewed) journals, book chapters or books, plus the required textbook (Koc, Sumner, & Winson, 2021) are included (for a minimum of five references). There is a list of suitable sources in Chapter 1 of the text on page 13. The list on page 13 includes examples of suitable sources. These are examples of academic, peer reviewed scholarly sources. Feel free to use other scholarly and peer reviewed sources. You are not limited to that list. • Currency and quality: Sources are carefully selected, with attention to timeliness and relevance. • Application and Relevance: Research is appropriate and relevant for the assignment topic and sufficiently integrated into the analysis. • Non-scholarly Sources: In addition to scholarly sources, you may include other relevant sources from media or web sources to highlight current discourse on the topic. Analysis provides context for why these sources are relevant, and how they relate to the research presented. See note below. • Follow APA guidelines for citation format (APA 7th edition preferred) – see Ryerson University Library’s Citation Guide. In addition to sociological sources, you may require other data, such as government data from Statistics Canada, Health Canada, United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization (UNFAO), the World Health Organization (WHO), or other reputable sources such as Food Secure Canada (FSC) to provide a rationale for your argument. If you are providing any context for your paper from news sources, please note that these are NOT scholarly sources and will NOT count towards your minimum required number of scholarly sources. For example: • Newspaper articles (Toronto Star, The National Post, Huffington Post, etc.) • Magazine articles (Macleans, Newsweek, The Economist) • Encyclopedia reference (including Wikipedia) • Dictionary references • Non-scholarly websites, blogs, etc. The content in the online modules is NOT to be used as a source of reference for your paper. Any issue raised in the module must refer to the original scholarly source(s) upon which it was based. Criteria Description Abstract The abstract provides a 150-word synopsis of your paper and has the following elements: • 1–2 sentences on the central issue and context • The abstract is on the main points of the analysis • 1–2 sentences on key conclusions Introduction The essay introduction provides brief context for your topic. It should include your thesis statement and an overview of the essay’s structure. Background In this section you can provide background information about your food item and your stage of the food system or supply chain. You can outline why this topic is important. You can also outline a few major debates that are currently taking place regarding your topic. This will help the reader situate your topic within a broader body of literature. You are welcome to incorporate relevant course content here as well. Analysis/Discussion In this section, please focus on providing evidence in support of your thesis statement or argument. Please ensure that your analysis incorporates scholarly sociological (and/or food studies) literature. Your writing should clearly incorporate several key themes or concepts from the course in a way that demonstrates a solid understanding. You will be required to think critically and assess how this content supports your thesis statement. • Use a critical approach. Critical analysis focuses on the source nature and consequences of power relationships. Critical sociologists who study food raise questions such as how differential access to land, resources, and healthy food affects human health and how the environment is affected. They also emphasize how social institutions and popular beliefs can resist or reinforce the existing distribution of power and of resources. • Both direct quotes and an author’s ideas must be referenced in your paper script using in-text citations (APA style). Do not use more than 10% of the word count as direct quotes. Conclusion Your conclusion should clearly link to the opening remarks from your introduction. It should provide a brief summary and highlight significant points from your analysis. It is not a section of the paper to introduce new evidence and analysis. Writing Style • Your paper is to be organized as outlined above and presented in a coherent style. • Your analysis is to be clearly written and free of grammatical and spelling mistakes. • Proper referencing style (APA) for citations is required. See Ryerson University Library’s Citation Guide for support on using APA. No hard copies or email submissions will be accepted. Note: You will not be required to share your paper with your group members, but you are encouraged to share your abstracts with your team as you prepare your final presentation. Part 3 – Group Presentation (20% of the final grade) As a group, students will develop a presentation that provides a critical analysis of the food system using what they have learned in their individual reports. As a group, you will develop a 5 – 10 minute presentation about your food item, highlighting key issues from your written report. Content: By this time, you have all researched and written individual reports about different stages of the supply chain/food system of a specific food item. In the group presentation you will put all that knowledge together and present a broader story about the food item. In the presentation: • Provide relevant background information about the food item and present some of the key social issues associated with that food item. • Work together to share and synthesize information to create a holistic and fluid presentation that is interesting and engaging. Avoid simply having each group member present their piece separately. Work on the presentation together as a group by sharing and exchanging information and helping each other develop a cohesive representation of the food item. Avoid reading from your paper, it will not make for an engaging presentation. Find connections or common themes between the different stages of the supply chain/food system and demonstrate the significance and implications of those connections. • The style and content of the presentation should be at a level that would be informative and engaging for your peers in the class. That is, your audience has a general familiarity with the issues, but your task is to provide a detailed and critical presentation of the issues that occur along the food chain for your food item.

explore and critically analyze issues in the food system using the lens of one food product.

Your Food System Project

This assignment will encourage students to explore and critically analyze issues in the food system using the lens of one food product. The assignment includes three stages that will require each student to work individually and with a group (up to 5 members). Part 1 – Group Proposal (10% of the final grade) As a group, students will explore a food item at various stages of the food supply chain or food system. Follow the steps below to sign up to a group. Selecting a food item and forming a group You are required to self-enroll in a group for two of the required assignments – the Group Proposal and the Group Presentation. Your instructor will create groups in D2L under the category titled ‘Food System Project’. • Selecting a food item: Each group is labeled with a different food item. Sign up to the item you wish to explore in more detail. This will be the food item that you will explore in more detail in the Group Proposal, Individual Paper, and the Group Presentation. If there is a food item you are interested in as a group, but it is not listed, please contact your instructor and propose the new food item. • Group enrolment: You will be required to self-enroll in a group on D2L. To enroll in a group, go to ‘Communication’ in the navigation bar and then ‘Groups’. When viewing the ‘Groups’ table, you will find a list of food items (each food item represents one group) and you will see how many members have already enrolled in each group. The group limit is 5 people. To select a group – click select and confirm your enrollment in the group. Once you enter a group, you will be able to view the related assignments and discussions associated with the group. You can use the group discussions to contact your group members. You can also email your group members using the email icon. When you email your group this way, the emails will remain anonymous and will not be displayed. You have to ask fellow group members to share their email. You can find more information about groups in D2L here: https://www.ryerson.ca/courses/students/tutorials/groups/ If you do not sign up by that time, you will automatically be placed in a group. However, you are encouraged to sign up to a group as soon as possible. This will ensure you have sufficient time to communicate with your group and submit a good quality proposal. By default, users cannot self-enroll in more than one group. If you want to change groups, you must leave a group first and then sign up to a new group. Leaving and changing groups is not permitted after the end of week 3. Completing the “Group Proposal” Review the document titled ‘Group Proposal Template’. You will find this document on D2L under ‘Assignments’. The document outlines specific instructions for the proposal and provides a template of what you are required to submit as the Group Proposal. The group proposal forms the basis of the next stages of the assignment – the individual paper and the group presentation. In completing the template, each student will focus on one stage of the food system for the food item, such as production, processing, or environmental, political, or cultural aspects of the food item. Please ensure each group member focuses on a different stage of the food system for the food item. Aim to minimize overlap between topics. There are many topics you can consider under each stage of the food system. Develop a focused topic. A more focused topic will allow you to explore an issue more rigorously and more thoroughly. To do this, narrow the scope of your topic. For example, pesticide use of coffee production, corporate concentration in the production of coffee, the environmental impacts of coffee pods or the impacts of fair trade on small coffee producers. These are all good examples of a focused topic. Criteria Description Required Elements All required components are completed Organization Presents relevant information in the table that relate to the stages of the food system and the thesis statements. Thesis statements Thesis statements are clear and concise. Each student in the group is to provide a thesis statement for their proposed topic. The topic is to relate to the food item and take a sociological perspective. References Includes a list of relevant, scholarly sources. A minimum of 5 sources in total at this stage (or the number of students in your group). Any additional nonscholarly sources used to research the proposal, such as web sources and news items are also to be listed. Although each group member is responsible for a different stage of the food system, you are welcome to share and use the same sources for your papers and identify themes that connect between your various topics. Ensure that the sources are relevant for your topic. Do not underestimate the significance of the proposal. Use the proposal to ensure your topic is well researched and that this is something you are interested in. The goal of the proposal is to illustrate to the instructor that you have begun researching your topic and that you have a good idea of what your individual paper will focus on. Developing a good group proposal will save you a lot of time in writing your paper and developing the group presentation. Coordination with your group for this work can be done in multiple ways. There are numerous social media platforms as well as D2L that will allow you to communicate with your group members online. As a group, you are responsible to communicate and collaborate with one another in a fair and just manner. Submission: The deadline to sign up to a group is by the end of week 3. Only one submission is required per group. Do NOT email your submissions. Emailed assignments will not be marked.

The five priority areas for quality improvement include:

1) Surgical site infection rates have increased by more than 5% in patients with total knee replacements due to poor hand hygiene, as staff did not follow the 5-Moments for Hand Hygiene protocol.

2) The incidence of pressure injuries have risen in the rehabilitation ward, particularly for older adults. According to a subsequent audit report, the key concerns were a lack of detail about the screening and assessment processes used by healthcare staff to prevent and manage pressure injuries.

3) The incidence of omissions in nursing care have risen due to non-comprehensive clinical handover, especially when transferring the patients from the operating theatre to the general surgical ward, as no clearly structured handover tools were used by the nursing staff.

4) There has been a 5% increase in the incidence of near-miss blood transfusion errors in the pre-transfusion checking procedures as staff were unfamiliar with policies and guidelines for the administration of blood products.

5) Overall patient satisfaction has decreased 10% from last year due to the COVID pandemic causing a shortage of healthcare staff.
