“Liking” and “wanting” food rewards: Brain substrates and roles in eating disorders
Open accessAbstract
What brain reward systems mediate motivational 'wanting' and hedonic 'liking' for food rewards? And what roles do those systems play in eating disorders? This article surveys recent findings regarding brain mechanisms of hedonic 'liking', such as the existence of cubic-millimeter hedonic hotspots in nucleus accumbens and ventral pallidum for opioid amplification of sensory pleasure. It also considers brain 'wanting' or incentive salience systems important to appetite, such as mesolimbic dopamine systems and opioid motivation circuits that extend beyond the hedonic hotspots. Finally, it considers some potential ways in which 'wanting' and 'liking' might relate to eating disorders.

Humans possess mesocorticolimbic circuitry that is exceptionally efficient at eliciting motivational responses upon exposure to food cues.
“Humans possess an extensive mesocorticolimbic circuitry that is exceptionally efficient at eliciting motivational responses upon exposure to food cues [30,31].”

There are dissociable neural underpinnings of 'wanting' (incentive motivation) and 'liking' (the pleasure of reward consumption).
“A related theory finds evidence for dissociable neural underpinnings of ‘wanting,’ or incentive motivation, and ‘liking,’ the pleasure of reward consumption (Robinson and Berridge, 1993; Berridge, 2009).”

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.
