Healthy decisions in the cued-attribute food choice paradigm have high test-retest reliability
Abstract Food choice paradigms are commonly used to study decision mechanisms, individual differences, and intervention efficacy. Here, we measured behavior from twenty-three healthy young adults who completed five repetitions of a cued-attribute food choice paradigm over two weeks. This task includ...
