A series of recent studies has shown that a number of dietary variables affect ruminative behavior in institutionalized retarded persons. This experiment extends an earlier study that examined the influence of the caloric level of the diet on the frequency of ruminating. Subjects consumed regular portions of food that varied between phases from normal to high caloric levels. The data show a clear but modest inverse relation between the caloric value of the diet and the rates of postmeal ruminating.
最近的一系列研究表明,一些饮食变量会影响收容机构中智障人士的反刍行为。本实验扩展了一项早期研究,该研究考察了饮食热量水平对反刍频率的影响。受试者食用正常份量的食物,这些食物在不同阶段的热量水平从正常到高热量不等。数据显示,饮食的热量值与餐后反刍率之间存在明显但适度的负相关关系。
