- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The main outcome of this study is the difference in taste activation in response to exposure to different caloric and non-caloric food stimuli, independent of sweetness (i.e. the difference in voxel activation in the brain).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method 1. The 1st secondary outcome is taste activation in response to caloric and non-caloric stimuli during hunger and during satiety (i.e. the difference in voxel activation in the brain);<br /><br>2. The 2nd secondary outcome is the correlation between taste activation in response to exposure to caloric and non-caloric stimuli and subject characteristics like reward sensitivity, delayed discounting and impulsivity(i.e. the correlation between voxel activation in the brain and scores from the following questionnaires/tasks: the Kirby monetary choice questionnaire, the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11), the Health and Taste Attitude questionnaire (HTAS), the Behavioral Inhibition System and Behavioral Approach System questionnaire (BIS/BAS), a stroop task and an n-back task.
