Estudo afirma que copos curvos fazem com que as pessoas consumam mais bebidas alcóolicas. Isso seria porque a curvatura do copo “engana” a percepção de estar em meio copo.

A diferença, entretanto, não é tão grande. 60% dos pesquisados bebeu mais em copos curvos do que lisos.

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.
