参加压力对饮食影响的实验室研究,健康的、不吸烟的男性和女性观看了一部关于工业事故的电影(压力条件)或一段愉快的旅行日志(控制条件),并可以吃甜的、咸的和淡的零食。对食物消费数据的分析揭示了受试者性别与压力操纵之间的显著相互作用:压力显著减少了男性的食物消费,但导致女性的食物消费有所增加。在这三种食物的味道中,男性在压力下吃得总是比在控制条件下吃得少。相比之下,女性在压力下吃的甜食和淡味食物几乎是对照组的两倍,但这些影响在统计上并不显著。这些结果表明,压力和饮食之间的关系取决于受试者的性别,也可能与可获得的食物类型有关。通过考虑这些相互作用的变量,档案文献中关于压力和饮食的对比概括在很大程度上可以得到调和。
Participating in a laboratory study of the effects of stress on eating, healthy, nonsmoking men and women were shown a film about industrial accidents (stress condition) or a pleasant travelogue (control condition) and had access to sweet, salty, and bland snack food. Analyses of food consumption data revealed a significant interaction between sex of subject and the stress manipulation: Stress markedly and significantly decreased food consumption by men but resulted in some increased food consumption by women. Across the three food taste categories, men consistently ate less under stress than they did in the control condition. In contrast, women ate nearly twice as much sweet food and more bland food under stress than they did in the control condition, but these effects were not statistically significant. These results indicate that the relationship between stress and eating depends on the sex of the subject and may relate to type of food available. Contrasting generalizations about stress and eating reported in the archived literature can largely be reconciled by considering these interacting variables.
