The proposed project will examine the strength, specificity and persistence of neurobehavioral adaptions that occur in the initial period of repeated consumption of a branded sugar sweetened beverage (SSB).
The proposed project addresses critical gaps in the understanding of the strength, specificity and persistence of neurobehavioral adaptions that occur in the initial period of repeated consumption of a branded sugar sweetened beverage (SSB). Half of Americans consume SSBs on any given day.
Regular SSB intake is considered a contributing factor to excess energy intake, weight gain, and obesity, which impacts 70% of Americans. A contributing factor to repeated SSB consumption is sugar intake causes the release of dopamine (DA) and opioids in the striatum, providing positive reinforcement. As such, multiple brain-based models of food reward-driven obesity have been proposed, largely focusing on the striatum and executive functioning. These brain-based models of obesity have elucidated risk factors for overconsumption of high-sugar foods; however, data supporting these competing models rely heavily on observational studies in small samples.
Importantly, previous reports from the investigators lab and others directly implicate eating behavior patterns as a vital contributor to aberrant neurobehavioral responses to food stimuli. However, without experimental evidence, there are fundamental gaps in the investigators knowledge about the neurobehavioral adaptations that occur as an individual begins to regularly consume a SSB prior to weight change.
As observational data suggest, it is also crucial to examine individual difference factors that may exacerbate or protect against adaptations associated with regular SSB intake, as well as whether these adaptions are specific.

| Beverage Perceptual Ratings Using Visual Analog Scales | Perceptual ratings of the assigned beverage using visual analog scales are assessed at the pre- and post-intervention behavioral visits. Visual analog scales (VAS) are presented on an iPad screen. The scale assesses response to taste after the participant consumes a small amount of the beverage. Perceived pleasantness of, and desire to consume the two beverages is measured using adapted labeled hedonic scales at pre-/post-intervention. Pleasantness is phrased 'How pleasant is this taste' and anchored by (-100) 'most unpleasant imaginable' to (100) 'most pleasant imaginable', and 'neutral' (0) in the middle. Desire follows a similar pattern using 'desire to consume' as the phrasing. Pleasantness and desire of the assigned beverage is also evaluated at the 9 intervention assessments. Higher scores represent higher pleasantness and desire. | Pre-intervention Behavioral Assessment; Post-intervention Behavioral Assessment; Post-intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Pre-intervention Assessment |
| Stop Signal Reaction Time to Logo as Measured by Behavioral Response Inhibition Task | Stop-signal reaction time to assigned beverage logo are assessed at the pre- and post-intervention visits. The behavioral response inhibition task (stop-signal task) examines motor disinhibition in response to beverage logos. This allows for the assessment of bias toward the logos and is sensitive to detect changes due to the intervention. The task is performed on an iPad app where participants complete the task twice, once at the pre-intervention and once at the post-intervention behavioral visit. The task contains 6 runs, where 3 runs present the logo of the assigned beverage and the other 3 present the logo of the same-flavor unassigned beverage. Within each run of this task, 64 (20 "go") trials are presented, and participants are instructed to make a speeded response to a "go" stimulus except for trials when a "stop" signal occurs (an X presented over the logo), in which case participants are instructed to withhold their response. | Pre-intervention Behavioral Assessment; Post-intervention Behavioral Assessment; Post-intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Pre-intervention Assessment |
| Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Modulation of Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) Using Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) of Brain Activation Signals in Response to Beverage Taste and Logo by TaqIA Single Nucleotide Polymorphism Status | Saliva from participants is used to extract DNA using standard salting-out and solvent precipitation methods, to yield an average of 45 µg of DNA. The TaqIA (rs1800497) assays are done using a fluorogenic 5_nuclease (Taqman, ABI) method on an ABI Prism 7000 Sequence Detection System via the allelic discrimination mode. Reactions containing 20ng of DNA are performed in 10 µl reactions with TaqMan Universal Polymerase Chain Reaction Master Mix using standard cycling conditions. Independent investigators score allele sizes; inconsistencies are reviewed and rerun when necessary. For every assay, each 96-well plate includes non-template and DNA standards of known genotype. All genotyping is performed at the UNC-CH Advanced Analytics Core | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Food Pattern From Baseline to Post-Intervention Assessment by Food Frequency Questionnaire | The Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) is a self-reported checklist of 76 foods and beverages with a frequency response section. Subjects report generally how often each item is consumed over a two-week period of time. The six possible responses are 1= never in the last two weeks, 2= 1-3 times in the last 2 weeks, 3= 4-6 times in the last 2 weeks, 4= 7-9 times in the last two weeks, 5= 10-13 times in the last 2 weeks, 6= daily or more in the last two weeks. Response information is used to estimate daily caloric intake (number of kcal) and macronutrient content (percent calories from carbohydrate/fat/protein). Food pattern is assessed as an aggregate of these measures. Changes in food pattern will be assessed as a difference from baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Beverage Intake Pattern From Baseline to Post-Intervention Assessment by Beverage Intake Questionnaire | To better capture variation in regular beverage intake patterns, the Beverage Intake Questionnaire is administered which queries directly about intake of all types of beverages. Similar to the Food Frequency Questionnaire, subjects report generally how often each item is consumed over a two-week period of time. The possible responses are 1= never in the last two weeks, 2= 1-3 times in the last 2 weeks, 3= 4-6 times in the last 2 weeks, 4= 7-9 times in the last two weeks, 5= 10-13 times in the last 2 weeks, 6= daily or more in the last two weeks. Responses information is used to estimate daily caloric intake from beverages (number of kcal) and macronutrient content (number of calories from carbohydrate/fat/protein). Changes in beverage intake are assessed as a difference from baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Physical Activity From Baseline to Post-Intervention Assessment by the Short-Form International Physical Activity Questionnaire | The International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), which has shown high test-retest reliability, assesses the types of intensity of physical activity and sitting time that people do as part of their daily lives and estimates total physical activity in metabolic equivalent of task (MET-min/week) and time spent sitting. Changes in physical activity are assessed as a difference from pre- to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Restrained Eating Subscale Score as Measured on Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire | The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire is a 33-item self-report measure designed to assess the type of eating behavior and is organized into 3 subscales (emotional eating, externally-induced eating, and restrained eating). Subjects rate the frequency of their eating behaviors using a 5-point scale, where 1=never, 2=seldom, 3=sometimes, 4=often, and 5=very often. The Restrained Eating subscale consisted of 10 items and the scores range from 10 (worse outcome) to 50 (better outcome). The change is calculated as the difference between scores at Baseline and Post-Intervention Assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Food Craving as Assessed by the Food Craving Inventory (FCI) Score Changes of Food Pattern From Baseline by Food Frequency Questionnaire During the Intervention | The Food Craving Inventory is a 28-item instrument measuring the frequency over the past month of general cravings and cravings for specific types of foods, namely: high fats, sweets, carbohydrates/starches, and fast-food fats. Subjects rate how often they have experienced a craving for each food on a 5-point frequency scale, where 1=never, 2=rarely (once or twice), 3=sometimes, 4= often, 5= always/almost every day. Food craving score is calculated as a total sum, and the change score is calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Hedonic Hunger as Assessed by the Power of Food Scale (PFS) Score | The Power of Food scale assesses reported appetitive drive, food reward responsivity, sensitivity to food cues in the environment, and the frequency of food-related thoughts. The 21-item scale prompts subjects to rate how much they agree with statements about hedonic hunger on a 5-point scale, where 1=do not agree at all, 2=agree a little, 3=agree somewhat, 4=agree, and 5=strongly agree. The change in total PFS score will be calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Food Habits as Assessed by the Yale Food Addiction Scale | The Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS) is designed to identify participants who exhibit signs of possible food addiction to specific foods. The 9-item questionnaire is based on substance dependence criteria in the DSM-IV-TR, as well as on scales that are used to assess behavioral addictions. Subjects rate how often they have experienced a possible food addictive behavior on a 5-point frequency scale, where 0=never, 1=once a month, 2=2-4 times per month, 3= 2-3 times per week, 4= 4+ times per week. The change in total score is calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in General Impulsivity as Assessed by the Barrett Impulsiveness Scale | The Barratt Impulsiveness Scale is one of the most commonly used self-report measures of impulsivity. This instrument comprises 15 items that assess three independent sub-dimensions of impulsivity: (a) Attention; (b) Non-planning; (c) Motor. Collectively, the three sub-dimensions represent a total impulsivity score. Items are statements about behavior and participants rate each item are scored from 1 (Rarely/Never) to 4 (Almost Always/Always). The change in total score is calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in General Sensitivity to Reward and Sensitivity to Punishment as Assessed by the Sensitivity to Punishment and Sensitivity to Reward Questionnaire | The Sensitivity to Punishment/Sensitivity to Reward Questionnaire (SPSRQ) is a self-reported instrument that includes 48 yes/no questions divided into two subscales: Sensitivity to Reward (SR) and Sensitivity to Punishment (SP). Items statements about behavior, and participants will rate each item are scored from 1 (Definitely True) to 5 (Definitely False). The change in total score is calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |
| Change in Behavioral Approach and Behavioral Inhibition as Assessed by the BIS/BAS Scales | The BIS/BAS scales are designed to assess individual differences in the sensitivity of two systems: A behavioral avoidance (or inhibition) system (BIS) and a behavioral approach system (BAS). The questionnaire includes 24 items. Items are statements about behavior and participants rate each item are scored from 1 (very true for me) to 4 (very false for me). The change in total score is calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment |

| Other Pre-specified | Change in Food Pattern From Baseline to Post-Intervention Assessment by Food Frequency Questionnaire | The Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ) is a self-reported checklist of 76 foods and beverages with a frequency response section. Subjects report generally how often each item is consumed over a two-week period of time. The six possible responses are 1= never in the last two weeks, 2= 1-3 times in the last 2 weeks, 3= 4-6 times in the last 2 weeks, 4= 7-9 times in the last two weeks, 5= 10-13 times in the last 2 weeks, 6= daily or more in the last two weeks. Response information is used to estimate daily caloric intake (number of kcal) and macronutrient content (percent calories from carbohydrate/fat/protein). Food pattern is assessed as an aggregate of these measures. Changes in food pattern will be assessed as a difference from baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Not Posted | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment | Participants | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

| Other Pre-specified | Change in Restrained Eating Subscale Score as Measured on Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire | The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire is a 33-item self-report measure designed to assess the type of eating behavior and is organized into 3 subscales (emotional eating, externally-induced eating, and restrained eating). Subjects rate the frequency of their eating behaviors using a 5-point scale, where 1=never, 2=seldom, 3=sometimes, 4=often, and 5=very often. The Restrained Eating subscale consisted of 10 items and the scores range from 10 (worse outcome) to 50 (better outcome). The change is calculated as the difference between scores at Baseline and Post-Intervention Assessment. | Not Posted | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment | Participants | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Other Pre-specified | Change in Food Craving as Assessed by the Food Craving Inventory (FCI) Score Changes of Food Pattern From Baseline by Food Frequency Questionnaire During the Intervention | The Food Craving Inventory is a 28-item instrument measuring the frequency over the past month of general cravings and cravings for specific types of foods, namely: high fats, sweets, carbohydrates/starches, and fast-food fats. Subjects rate how often they have experienced a craving for each food on a 5-point frequency scale, where 1=never, 2=rarely (once or twice), 3=sometimes, 4= often, 5= always/almost every day. Food craving score is calculated as a total sum, and the change score is calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Not Posted | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment | Participants | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Other Pre-specified | Change in Hedonic Hunger as Assessed by the Power of Food Scale (PFS) Score | The Power of Food scale assesses reported appetitive drive, food reward responsivity, sensitivity to food cues in the environment, and the frequency of food-related thoughts. The 21-item scale prompts subjects to rate how much they agree with statements about hedonic hunger on a 5-point scale, where 1=do not agree at all, 2=agree a little, 3=agree somewhat, 4=agree, and 5=strongly agree. The change in total PFS score will be calculated from the difference between baseline to post-intervention assessment. | Not Posted | Baseline Assessment; Post-Intervention Assessment, Post-Intervention Assessment completed approximately 5 weeks after the Baseline Assessment | Participants | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Other Pre-specified | Change in Food Habits as Assessed by the Yale Food Addiction Scale | The Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS) is designed to identify participants who exhibit signs of possible food addiction to specific foods. The 9-item questionnaire is based on substance dependence criteria in the DSM-IV-TR, as well as on scales that are used to assess behavioral addictions. Subjects rate how often they have experienced a possible food addictive behavior on a 5-point frequency scale, where 0=never, 1=once a month, 2=2-4 times per month, 3= 2-3 times per week, 4= 4+ times per week.
