Taste-shape correspondences are associated with drive for thinness (Paper publication)
Posted in RESEARCH
It is well known that people associated sweet tastes with round shapes. On the other hand, eating disorder tendencies are associated with taste and shape perceptions. In this study, we investigated the association between taste-shape correspondences and eating disorder tendencies. And we found that the degree of sweet-round matching was correlated with drive for thinness (Hamamoto). https://doi.org/10.1163/22134808-bja10030
