Abstract

With the objectives to better understand gender-related differences in variables of importance for food intake, and interrelations between these variables, 100 healthy, young women and 100 healthy, young men responded to self-administrated questionnaires about general food rejection, learned illness-associated food aversions, disgust (the Disgust Scale), food neophobia (the Food Neophobia Scale), nausea and appetite. The results show that food rejection and aversions were more common in women (69 and 38%, respectively) than in men (47 and 18%), and that women are more disgust sensitive than men. However, no differences between women and men were observed regarding reasons for rejecting food (predominantly sensory attributes), prevalence of gastrointestinal illness as an associated aversion symptom (95 vs 89%), type of aversive food due to associated illness (predominantly high protein items), or food neophobia. Based on path analyses, a model is proposed of interrelations between disgust, food neophobia, learned food aversions, nausea, appetite, and general food rejection in healthy young adults.

  • The willingness to try an unfamiliar food depends strongly on information on the taste and on the nature of food.

    “The consolidated evidence showed that the willingness to try an unfamiliar food depends strongly on information on the taste and on the nature of food (Nordin, Broman, Garvill, & Nyroos, 2004).”

  • Age, gender and place of residence influence the acceptance of novel food.

    “Socio-demographic variables also play an important role: age (Tuorila, Lähteenmäki, Pohjalainen, & Lotti, 2001), gender (Nordin et al., 2004) and place of residence (Flight, Leppard, & Cox, 2003;Tuorila et al., 2001) influence the acceptance of novel food.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
