Exploring the impact of daily hassles and stressors on snacking behaviours
24 May 2018
This study is exploring how our emotions are linked to our eating behaviours, and here, the focus is on snacking behaviours. Our team is investigating whether stress affects the types of foods you consume. A lot of research has already identified that stress in adults can lead to changes in their eating behaviours, but much less research has explored how stress affects the eating of both children and young adults. This is why we feel it is important to conduct this research.
