Human judgements of the pleasure of sweetness have been reported to be modulated by caloric hunger, satiety, and sensory-specific satiety. This study examined both hedonic and aversive facial/somatic reactions to taste in the rat, in order to confirm the relation of hunger and satiety to taste affect, and to assess whether affective modulation depends upon the cognitive factors that mediate hum...

Changes in home owners’ wealth is measured by using an index of property prices constructed from sales transactions. Since only a very small proportion of the housing stock is offered to the market in any given time period, the index is a proxy for change in the price of all properties. The accuracy of the index determines its suitability as a ‘good’ proxy in reflecting price changes. Several m...

Quantile hedonic house price function estimates imply that appreciation rates were higher between 1995 and 2005 for high-priced homes in Chicago. Decompositions of temporal changes in the house price distribution suggest that the types of homes sold and their location do not account for the change in the price distribution. Rather, higher appreciation rates for high-priced homes are explained b...

ackground: Stress, one of the strongest risk factors for depression, has been linked to “anhedonic” behavior and dysfunctional eward-related neural circuitry in preclinical models. ethods: To test if acute stress reduces reward responsiveness (i.e., the ability to modulate behavior as a function of past reward), a ignal-detection task coupled with a differential reinforcement schedule was utili...

This paper proposes a subjective well-being approach to test the equilibrium condition implicit in hedonic pricing. Contrary to the conclusions of previous studies, we show that both approaches are not complementary but, rather, they are alternative ways of computing implicit prices of environmental amenities. They are equivalent when the equilibrium condition holds but, in the absence of such ...

Two experiments examined the impact of exposure to social food cues on the spontaneous activation of hedonic thoughts about food in restrained and unrestrained eaters. Consistent with hypotheses, it was found that restrained eaters, but not unrestrained eaters, spontaneously activate hedonic food thoughts upon reading behavior descriptions that involved a palatable food item. Moreover, it was s...

Psychological well-being (WB) includes a person's overall appraisal of his or her life (Global WB) and affective state (Hedonic WB), and it is considered a key aspect of the health of individuals and groups. Several cross-sectional studies have documented a relation between Global WB and age. Little is known, however, about the age distribution of Hedonic WB. It may yield a different view of ag...
