The modeling effect on eating means that the more models eat the more participants eat. Herman, Polivy, & Roth (2003) proposed that participants make the amount of food they consume conform to the consumption of others in order to avoid being seen by others as eating excessively. In this study, in order to create a situation in which participants believe no one can know how much they eat, we did not use the usual model. Instead, feigned leftover food was shown to participants before the tasting test. This leftover food (in amounts large or small) was expected to give participants information on how much other participants had eaten. In one condition, participants were misled to believe that the experimenter could not find out how much food the participants had consumed; in another condition, they were not misled. In the former condition, regardless of how much others eat, participants should eat as much as they like, believing that no one can learn of the amount, they consume. Contrary to the prediction, the modeling effect arose in both conditions. These results indicate that the modeling effect cannot be explained entirely by self-presentational concern regarding others.

30歳から70歳までの年齢コホートを6年間追跡し,体重の推移を性別に比較検討した。その結果,以下のことが明らかになった。体重は男女とも50歳代前半まで有意に増加し最大体重値になり,その後60歳代中頃から有意な低下に転じる。男性の体重は女性の体重よりも速く最大値に達し,減少する。成人では体重が増加するので最大体重値を抑制する体重管理が必要であろう。一方高齢者では体重が減少に転じることから,極度の肥満者を除けば積極的な減量指導は必要ないかもしれない。
