Progressive weight loss resulting from restriction to a daily 1.5-hr feeding period and access to a running wheel, the Activity-Based Anorexia (ABA) effect, was obtained in 3 experiments. However, bodyweight recovered when adaptation to the feeding schedule preceded access to the wheel (Experiment 1), when feeding was at the start of the dark period (Experiments 2 and 3), and when wheel access was denied in the 4 hr before food (Experiment 4). It was concluded that ABA results from interference with adaptation to a new feeding schedule due to the development of anticipatory behavior.
在3项实验中，通过限制每日进食时间为1.5小时并提供跑轮，获得了渐进性体重减轻，即基于活动的厌食（ABA）效应。然而，当在接触跑轮之前先适应进食时间表时（实验1）、当在黑暗期开始时进食时（实验2和3）以及当在进食前4小时禁止接触跑轮时（实验4），体重恢复了。得出的结论是，ABA是由于预期行为的发展干扰了对新进食时间表的适应而导致的。
