Abstract
Examined the effects of cue salience and palatability (water temperature) on the water drinking of 80 obese and normal undergraduates. Obese Ss drank more than normal Ss when the water cue was prominent but did not do so when this cue was remote. Palatability did not differentially affect the drinking behavior of obese and normal Ss. Results support the extension to nonfood stimuli of the hypothesis of the hyperreactivity of the obese to prominent cues. (17 ref) (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2006 APA, all rights reserved).
