Abstract

Abstract. The present study aimed to investigate and compare the impact of the Mindful Construal Diary (MCD) and the Mindful Raisin Exercise on the sensory tasting experience of chocolate and participants’ chocolate consumption. Participants were randomly allocated into three conditions (MCD, mindful raisin exercise, and mindless control), and engaged with either the MCD, the mindful raisin exercise, or, were asked to read a news article, respectively, while they ate a piece of chocolate. They then rated their satisfaction and desire to consume more chocolate on a 10-point Likert scale, and filled in a state mindful eating scale. Afterward, participants were informed that the study had ended and were asked to wait while the experimenter recorded some information, and any extra chocolate consumption during this time was recorded. Participants in both mindfulness conditions consumed significantly less chocolate after the exercise than participants in the control condition. No significant differences were found between the three conditions on ratings of satisfaction and desire to consume more chocolate. Both the MCD and the raisin exercise can be used to successfully moderate the intake of calorific foods, while the MCD can be utilized as an alternative practice to the typical meditation-based interventions.
研究两种正念饮食运动对巧克力消耗量的影响
摘要本研究旨在调查和比较正念解释日记(MCD)和正念葡萄干练习对巧克力感官品尝体验和参与者巧克力消费的影响。参与者被随机分配到三种情况下(MCD,正念葡萄干练习和无意识控制),并分别进行MCD,正念葡萄干练习,或者被要求在吃一块巧克力的同时阅读一篇新闻文章。然后,他们用10分的李克特量表对自己的满意度和消费更多巧克力的欲望进行打分,并填写一份状态正念进食量表。之后,参与者被告知研究已经结束,并被要求等待,让实验者记录一些信息,并记录这段时间内任何额外的巧克力消耗。两组参与者在运动后消耗的巧克力都明显少于对照组。在三种情况下,满意度评分和消费更多巧克力的欲望没有显著差异。MCD和葡萄干练习都可以用来成功地调节高热量食物的摄入,而MCD可以作为典型的基于冥想的干预的替代实践。
