It’s well-known that people appreciate things more if they have worked for
them – __f__. and this applies to food, too , reports The Daily Telegraph. In a US study, __c__psychologists trained mice to press levers to obtain sugary treats. One lever
had to be pressed 15 times before it delivered the reward; the other
delivered
a similar titbit after just one press. When the mice were given free access to
both types of treat, they favoured the one they had previously worked harder
for, __b__even if it was a food they usually preferred,__e__ by manipulating the amount of work required to obtain the food.
. “At present, we don’t know why effort seems to boost the taste
of
food, __a__but we know that it does
, and this effect lasts for at least 24 hours after the act of working
hard to get the food,” said Alexander Johnson of Johns Hopkins University.
“This suggests that, down the road, obese individuals might be able to alter
their eating habits so as to prefer healthier, low-calorie food __e__. by manipulating the amount of work required to obtain the food
.”
