Description

Have you ever wondered why people regularly drink coffee? Could it be a simple result of a routine or compulsion, or a desire to be socially connected through the beverage, or is this due to some form of physiological reliance? The question that I want to investigate follows: Do coffee drinkers consume coffee out of simple satisfaction alone, or is the beverage consumed out of physiological dependence, out of routine and habit, or to satisfy a desire for social connection? I conducted a survey to investigate this question and I will discuss my research to determine which method of motivation may be the most promising explanation for why coffee drinkers consume coffee.
