Glass Shape Influences Consumption Rate for Alcoholic Beverages

 

Participants were 60% slower to consume an alcoholic beverage from a straight glass compared to a curved glass. This effect was only observed for a full glass and not a half-full glass, and was not observed for a non-alcoholic beverage. Participants also misjudged the half-way point of a curved glass to a greater degree than that of a straight glass, and there was a trend towards a positive association between the degree of error and total drinking time.

 

Wait, degree of error increased with total drinking time? Nooooooooooo! Read and comment on the full post
