title: The feeling of hunger.
abstract: Hunger symptoms were assessed in two groups of normal subjects at a variety of times of day. The data showed that relatively few symptoms were endorsed even after longer deprivation periods, and they confirmed other experimental results suggesting that there is no strong and characteristic pattern of hunger symptoms. It is suggested that any notions of disturbed hunger sensations in patients with eating disorders must be evaluated carefully.
