Abstract

Effects of imagery activity (putting quarters into a laundry machine, eating M&Ms, eating one’s favorite sweet, or eating one’s favorite food) and food given (M&Ms, skittles, or goldfish crackers) on calorie intake were measured. These variables interacted with each other. Gender and height also influenced calorie intake.
