Study type | Observational |
The purpose of this study is to test how the brain responds when individuals eat enjoyable foods such as chocolate. Eating certain foods can make one want to keep eating even when feeling full, caused by dopamine in the brain. The researchers believe this dopamine response can be measured by looking at the individual's eye.

Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Retinal dopamine response to oral stimuli | Electroretinograph beta wave amplitude will increase in response to increases in the amount of sugar in the chocolate | 30 minutes | |
Primary | Psychoactive Effects Questionnaire in response to oral stimuli | The number of positive responses on the Psychoactive Effects Questionnaire will increase in response to increases in the sugar content of the chocolate | 30 minutes | |
Secondary | Scores on the Binge Eating Scale will correlate with the retinal dopamine and Psychoactive Effect Questionnaire responses | Individual changes in the retinal dopamine response and the number of positive responses on the Psychoactive Effects Questionnaire will correlate with individual scores on the Binge Eating Scale | 30 minutes |
