The purpose of this research is to investigate the influence of incidental fitness cues on caloric food intake in restrained (vs. unrestrained) eaters. The authors show that the effect of incidental fitness cues (made salient via a priming procedure in a seemingly unrelated study prior to the main study) on caloric food intake differs between dietary forbidden and permitted foods. For food that is perceived as dietary forbidden, calorie intake decreases if restrained eaters are incidentally primed with fitness. In contrast, calorie intake of dietary permitted food increases for restrained eaters in response to incidental fitness primes. The study extends prior research on priming effects on eating behavior and derives important implications on how to help restrained eaters control energy intake.
本研究旨在探讨偶然的健康线索对节食（与非节食）者热量食物摄入的影响。作者表明，偶然的健康线索（通过在主要研究之前的一项看似不相关的研究中进行启动程序来突出显示）对热量食物摄入的影响在饮食禁忌和允许的食物之间有所不同。对于被视为饮食禁忌的食物，如果节食者偶然被启动与健康相关的线索，那么他们的卡路里摄入量就会减少。相比之下，如果节食者偶然接触到健康线索，那么他们对允许的食物的卡路里摄入量就会增加。该研究扩展了关于启动效应对饮食行为的影响的研究，并对如何帮助节食者控制能量摄入提供了重要启示。
