Outcome measures
Primary outcome
The development of SSS through consumption of the test products. This will be
assessed in two ways. First, by comparing the decrease in palatability ratings
of the test foods from before to after consumption of a fixed amount with the
mean decrease in liking of the other, non-eaten, foods. Secondly, by comparing
the amount eaten ad libitum of the test foods.
Secondary outcome
n.a.
Background summary
Scientific literature points out that differences in sensory characteristics of
products, e.g. flavour intensity, might have an effect on sensory specific
satiety. Moreover, these characteristics might differentially affect sensory
specific satiety in children and adults.
Study objective
To determine the differential effect of age (children vs. adults) on the
development of sensory specific satiety (SSS) in relation to intensity of
drinks (both sweetness and flavour). To compare two methods of assessing SSS.
Study design
The study is a randomized, crossover, intervention study, in which the
development of SSS of two test products will be tested. For each of the
products, development of SSS will be tested in two different ways (ad libitum
and fixed consumption), on separate test days. For the subjects, the four
sessions take place on separate test days, separated by at least 72hrs.
Intervention
Each participant will undergo 4 sessions. During these sessions he/she will
taste and rate a small amount of 5 different foods. Next, he/she will eat a
larger amount of one of these 5 foods (test food), either ad libitum, or a
fixed amount (300ml). Finally, he/she will taste and rate the same 5 foods
again.
There are 2 test foods, and 2 conditions (ad libitum and fixed consumption).
Each subject will test both foods in both conditions.
The test foods vary in intensity (both taste and sweetness). The foods contain
soy and dairy. All ingredients are suitable for human consumption and
microbiologically safe.
Study burden and risks
The intervention is non-therapeutic to the subject. The risk associated with
participation is negligible and the burden can be considered as minimal.
Subjects (and/or their parents in the case of the under aged participants) will
sign informed consent upon participation.
