Procedure
The procedure was identical to that described above, except for the inclusion of a taste test and provision of two foods instead of one. As before, participants were instructed to refrain from eating for three hours before the start of the study to ensure that they all arrived with “similar levels of glucose deprivation”. Upon arrival, participants gave written informed consent, and completed the same two state measures of hunger (visual analogue scale) and mood state (PANAS) as before. Participants then performed the SST, which lasted approximately 20 minutes. After task completion, participants were asked to complete a taste test (based on Houben, 2011) and the same filler questionnaires as in Experiment 1.
