Dec 1, 2013 · In a more controlled setting, May, Andrade, Batey, et al. (2010, Experiment 2) examined the effect of 10 min of body scanning instructions on thoughts and craving for snack foods by students who were attempting to reduce consumption of snack foods and had not eaten for 2 h. Effects were compared with those from guided imagery and control (mind wandering) instructions.
