Thought For Food: Top-Down Processes Moderate Sensory-Specific Satiation | ACR

Participants who imagined eating more food subsequently consumed less of it than did those who imagined eating less of that food, another food, or simply imagined moving it. Our results suggest that top-down processes can engender satiety.
