Abstract
12 nonobese male college students ate 2 high preference dinners, once under high hunger and once under low hunger conditions, and 2 low preference dinners the same way. By videotaping the meals, several eating responses could be measured without interfering with normal eating behavior. Results show that the hunger and preference treatments tended to act in the same way. Increased hunger and preference increased the amount eaten, the meal time, the number of bites and samplings, and chewing time; they tended to decrease eating rates (i.e., amount and time per bite). No Hunger * Preference interaction was found. Comparisons between the 1st and last quarters of the meals indicated that satiety effects paralleled hunger effects.
