psychologist Floor Kroese thought that temptation(诱惑) might in fact heighten
self-control. To prove this theory, Kroese and her colleagues, 39 a
memory test, asked fifty-four
40 students to look at a
picture of either a slice of chocolate cake or a flower. The researchers then
questioned the students about their diets and offered them a choice
between 41 and the oatmeal cookie.
Women
shown the cake picture gave a higher priority to their healthy eating 42
than those shown the flower. They were also significantly more likely to
pick the oatmeal cookie – which was generally considered as the healthier
choice.
“It
seems that seeing a food temptation reminded people of their goals of watching
their weight, and thus 43 them to act in an appropriate manner,”
says Kroese.
44 studies suggested that smelling tasty,
unhealthy foods made people rate healthy eating as highly important, but this
is the first research to look at how seeing unhealthy foods 45
snacking behavior.
Kroese
suggests that sticking pictures of tempting foods on the refrigerator door may
help bring weight-watching goals to mind. But she 46 that the results can only be applied to
women wanting to lose weight; it is unclear whether they would be so to the
general 47 .
The
findings suggest that while very tempting images seem to remind people of their
weight-loss goals, weekly attractive images perhaps could then be more
dangerous.
