To guarantee that the elicitation of motives resulting
from comparisons between less abstract/more similar stimuli
would not be neglected, subjects who chose ready meals
as the first or second most likely option in either of the
occasions proposed went through a third ranking step. In
this step, they were asked to rank-order five manufactured
ready meals—frozen pizza, canned soup, chilled Orientalstyle
noodles, dried Italian-style pasta and chilled hotpot—
according to the likelihood of each of them being
chosen for dinner on the occasion previously considered.
The products and their descriptions were presented randomly
to subjects with the aid of written cards. These products
were then widely available in shops and supermarkets
in the Netherlands. Furthermore, according to the nationwide
food consumption data available at the time, they
were among the six most consumed types of ready meals
in this country (Costa et al., 2002b).
Immediately following each of the two (or three) rankordering
steps—meal solutions on a weekday, meal solutions
on the weekend and specific ready meals—subjects
were asked to supply the motives for their rankings. These
were then used as the starting point for the laddering task.
The elicitation of motives focused on the meals ranked first
and second in the first two ranking steps, and on those
positioned first, second and fifth in the third ranking step.
Since we were interested to learn why ready meals were not
more frequently consumed in the Netherlands, the motives
for ranking this type of meal solution in the third or fourth
position on a weekday or the weekend were also elicited
and laddered.
