Measuring Hedonic Behaviors to Food Odors in Children
Résumé
Olfaction is crucial for the hedonic appreciation of food. However, measuring hedonic value of food odors remains a challenge, especially in young children or in individuals with altered verbal abilities. The protocol described in this chapter consists of a method adapted to children and people with limited verbal abilities, and which combines subjective measures of the hedonic value of odors with the analysis of motor behavior in response to odors. This protocol provides a way to study the perception of hedonic value of smell for non-verbal population and allows studying the motivational components of smells.
