摘要：The present study examined beliefs concerning the impact of psychological mood states on the behaviors of food consumption and food selection. Preschoolers through adults judged whether a character in a positive or negative moods state would consume more food or if mood states donot make a difference. Overall, preschoolers through sixth graders judged that positive mood states would promote more food consumption, where as adults reasoned that negative mood states would promote an increase in food consumption. Participants reasoned that positive mood states would promote the selection of a mixture of healthy and unhealthy foods where as negative mood states would promote the consumption of unhealthy foods. These results suggest that even young children have recognition of the impact of psychological mood states on eating behaviors and food selection.
