人们对他们做出的与食物有关的决定以及环境如何影响这些决定的认识程度如何？研究1显示，139人低估了他们做出的与食物有关的决定的数量--平均低估了221个以上的决定。研究二调查了192个人，他们因为得到了夸大的环境提示(如一个大碗)而吃得过多和过量了31%的食物。在这些被研究的人中，21%的人否认吃得更多，75%的人将其归因于其他原因(如饥饿)，只有4%的人将其归因于暗示。这些研究强调了两个关键点：首先，我们只意识到我们做出的食物决定中的一小部分。其次，我们要么没有意识到我们的环境是如何影响这些决定的，要么我们不愿意承认这一点。
How aware are people of food-related decisions they make and how the environment influences these decisions? Study 1 shows that 139 people underestimated the number of food-related decisions they made-by an average of more than 221 decisions. Study 2 examined 192 people who overserved and overate 31% more food as a result of having been given an exaggerated environmental cue (Such as a large bowl). Of those studied, 21% denied having eaten more, 75% attributed it to other reasons (such as hunger), and only 4% attributed it to the cue. These studies underscore two key points: First, we are aware of only a fraction of the food decisions we make. Second, we are either unaware of how our environment influences these decisions or we are unwilling to acknowledge it.
