“…We did not investigate the relation between valence and arousal at the ideographic (within-person) level, which is known to depend on individual characteristics such as mood [68], physiological state [69], gender [70], age [71], and cultural background [72][73][74].…”

In a recent study on food-evoked emotions, we observed that people often misunderstood the currently available affective self-report tools. We, therefore, developed a new intuitive and language-independent self-report instrument called the EmojiGrid: a rectangular response grid labeled with facial icons (emoji) that express different degrees of valence and arousal. We found that participants intuitively and reliably reported their affective appraisal of food by clicking on the EmojiGrid, even without verbal instructions. In this study, we investigated whether the EmojiGrid can also serve as a tool to assess one’s own (experienced) emotions and perceived emotions of others. In the first experiment, participants (N = 90) used the EmojiGrid to report their own emotions, evoked by affective images from a database with corresponding normative ratings (obtained with a 9-point self-assessment mannikin scale). In the second experiment, participants (N = 61) used the EmojiGrid to report the perceived emotional state of persons shown in different affective situations, in pictures from a database with corresponding normative ratings (obtained with a 7-point Likert scale). For both experiments, the affective (valence and arousal) ratings obtained with the EmojiGrid show excellent agreement with the data provided in the literature (intraclass correlations of at least 0.90). Also, the relation between valence and arousal shows the classic U-shape at the group level. Thus, the EmojiGrid appears to be a useful graphical self-report instrument for the assessment of evoked and perceived emotions.

“…Hoover also points to the complex link between perception of odours and satiation, noting that with reduced olfactory function, food choices may shift to high fat, salt and sugary foods that stimulate 'taste' but not flavour. Moreover, research is now showing that the size of the olfactory bulb appears to have distinct correlates with the experience of depression (Flohr et al, 2017;Croy et al, 2014). The physical 'stuff' of food when savouring the smell of it or eating, stimulate the physical 'stuff' of the body through which emotions and feelings manifest, but not equally.…”

Food play: A novel research methodology for visceral geographers and health researchers

This paper reinforces the value of visceral geographic approaches to health research as a method 'beyond talking'. The paper establishes and sets out an integrative embodied multi-sensory research methodology-food play. Researchers across the social sciences and sciences are exploring the limits of logo and researcher centric research methods and exploring peoples sensory experience of themselves and the wider world using participatory, patient-centred, multi-sensory, visceral and biosocial geographic approaches. With reference to the growing interest in visceral approaches to research in geography, and sensory research in neurology, anthropology and embodied cognition in psychology, we argue that the presence and pungency of food uniquely animates research, and for our research, provided highly individualised insight into the lived experience of living long term with eating difficulties, allowing visceral difference to emerge and be expressed. We illustrate our approach with reference to a six-year research project, Resources for Living, co-produced with survivors of head and neck cancer and underpinned by a series of food play workshops to address post-treatment and chronic difficulties with food and eating.

“…Comorbidities may also modify perception of food modalities. The higher prevalence of depression in the ageing population could justify the differential response towards olfactory cues as compared to the young [ 47 ]. Diabetes mellitus type 2 (DM2) may also work as an independent risk factor for olfactory and cognitive dysfunction, whereas early studies showed a preference for sweet foods, especially in AD and VD [ 48 ].…”

Feeding and nutrition follow the growth trajectory of the course of life. The profound physiological changes that human body experiences during ageing affect separate aspects of food intake, from tastant perception to satiety. Concurrent morbidities, such as neurodegeneration, as seen in dementia, and metabolic syndrome, may further shape nutritional behaviours, status and adequacy. In an effort to fill the gap between the exhausting basic research and the actual needs of professionals caring for the exponentially expanding ageing population, the current review addresses major factors relevant to appetite and eating disturbances. Does age alter the perception of food modalities? Is food generally still perceived as alluring and delicious with age? Is there an interplay between ageing, cognitive decline, and malnutrition? What tools can we adopt for proper and timely monitoring? Finally, what anatomical and pathophysiological evidence exists to support a hypothesis of central regulation of metabolic perturbations in normal and accelerated cognitive impairment, and how can we benefit from it in health practice?
