| Popis: | 40 obese and 40 normal-weighted Ss rated 10 food-related, 10 neutral, and 10 hostile cartoons. Half of the Ss rated the cartoons before eating and half rated them after eating. The hypothesis that weight and the manipulation of hunger would differentially affect the food-cartoon ratings was not supported. The hypothesis that the obese would rate the hostile and neutral cartoons higher than would the normal-weighted Ss also did not receive support. A striking similarity of ratings on all cartoon groups was noted and discussed. Future research suggestions for stricter controls on deprivation time and amount eaten were made. |
