Habituation as a determinant of human food intake.
Open accessAbstract
Research has shown that animals and humans habituate on a variety of behavioral and physiological responses to repeated presentations of food cues, and habituation is related to amount of food consumed and cessation of eating. The purpose of this article is to provide an overview of experimental paradigms used to study habituation, integrate a theoretical approach to habituation to food based on memory and associative conditioning models, and review research on factors that influence habituation. Individual differences in habituation as they relate to obesity and eating disorders are reviewed, along with research on how individual differences in memory can influence habituation. Other associative conditioning approaches to ingestive behavior are reviewed, as well as how habituation provides novel approaches to preventing or treating obesity. Finally, new directions for habituation research are presented. Habituation provides a novel theoretical framework from which to understand factors that regulate ingestive behavior.

“Response decrement to repeated stimulus presentation may be due to factors other than habituation, such as receptor or effector fatigue (Thompson & Spencer, 1966; Thorpe, 1966), but the demonstration that a dishabituator can result in recovery of responses to an habituated stimulus is unique to…”

“While they are complementary in their influence on eating (Bartoshuk, 1991; Frank & Byram, 1988; Warwick, Hall, Pappas, & Schiffman, 1993), research has shown effects of olfactory (Epstein et al., 2005) and taste (Epstein, Caggiula et al., 1993) stimuli on habituation.”

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.
