IMPLICEAT

IMPLICEAT aims to investigate the importance of implicit factors in eating behavior, and to measure how food decision-making mechanisms differ between normo-weighted, overweight and obese adults.

The increase of overweight and obesity in France has led to the emergence of public health policies aimed at changing consumer eating behavior. However, achieving change individual's eating behavior is very difficult, because food choices and decision-making are influenced by both conscious (explicit) and non-conscious (implicit) factors. IMPLICEAT's main scientific objective is to gain a better understanding of the mechanisms involved in food choice decisions in normal-weight, overweight and obese adults. The central hypothesis is that individuals' cognition and eating behavior, in particular food choices, are not only influenced by the conscious perception of sensory cues, but also by non-conscious/non-attentive exposure to these cues. IMPLICEAT's technical ambition (1) is to develop innovative behavioral and neuroscientific methodologies; its societal ambition (2) is to disseminate relevant results to public authorities, based on implicit approaches that can be adapted to different socio-economic contexts, in order to highlight the links between food choice, health and implicit cognition.
