Physical Activity and Food Consumption: the Moderating Role of Dieting Tendency
This research examines the impact of physical activity on dieters’ and nondieters’ food consumption. The empirical findings show that only dieters’ food consumption and choice are significantly affected by physical activity, which is construed as an entitlement justification. Framing physical activity as fun (vs. work) reverses dieters’ food compensation.
