Question 3 • TCHS VV Psychology A - Elec

Which of the following statements has not been indicated by research on food and hunger behaviors?

Answer
A
Forcing children to eat specific foods often has a negative effect on food preference.
B
People usually consume larger amounts of food in social settings.
C
Stress may cause people to decrease their craving for carbohydrates.
D
Children are more likely to eat certain foods after seeing a parent eat them.

Explanation

Research generally indicates that stress can increase cravings for carbohydrate-rich foods, rather than decrease them. The other statements are supported by findings: pressure to eat foods can reduce children’s preference for them, people often eat more in social settings, and children may imitate a parent’s food choices. Therefore, the statement that has not been indicated is “Stress may cause people to decrease their craving for carbohydrates.”
