His enthusiasm for research is contagious and it was doing a summer internship with him that initially inspired me to do a PhD. Without his guidance, expertise, and dedication this thesis would not have been possible. I would also like to thank my second PhD supervisor, Professor John Blundell, whose expertise, enthusiasm and drive for excellence has been inspiring. Under the guidance of John and Graham I have been fortunate to gain invaluable skills in scientific design and analysis, writing manuscripts and presentation delivery. I am sincerely grateful for all of the opportunities they have provided to me and I could not have wished for better supervisors. I would like to acknowledge the Biotechnology and Biological Sciences Research Council: Diet and Health Research Industry Club (grant number #BB/G530141/1), for providing the funding that enabled me to undertake my postgraduate work. I am grateful to Dr. Joanne Cecil and Dr. Roger Tavendale for sharing with me their expertise and for making me feel welcome during my visit to St. Andrews and Dundee, and for their contribution to Chapter 9. I would also like to acknowledge those people who contributed to this work. I thank Maddy Kavanagh and Olivia Bailey for their assistance in conducting the study in Chapters 5 and 6 and Rachel Fenwick and Alice Wright for their assistance in conducting the study in Chapter 9. Furthermore, I would like to thank the members of the HARU for providing help whenever it was required. I am also grateful to my parents for their unwavering belief and support throughout my life, and to my friends, in particular Kirstie and Lucy, who have listened and provided me with endless support, encouragement and happiness. Last but not least, I would like to thank my husband, James, for reading every last word and for making sure that we celebrated the little things…with champagne…and cake. - ii - Abstract 2 Abstract The objective of this thesis was to identify and characterise a robust phenotype susceptible to reward-driven overeating. Specifically, the thesis aimed to examine the role of liking and wanting for food in trait binge eating and to determine other potential biopsychological markers of susceptibility (psychological, physiological and genetic). In a systematic series of studies, normal-weight (Ch.6,7,9) and overweight or obese (Ch.7,8) females were categorised as either ‘binge-type’ or ‘non-binge type’ based on their scores on the Binge Eating Scale. Using a biopsychological approach, susceptibility was characterised across several different scientific domains. Liking and wanting for food were measured using the validated Leeds Food Preference Questionnaire (Ch.5-9) – LFPQ - which separated explicit and implicit processes. Food choice and energy intake were assessed objectively and quantitatively in the laboratory using ad libitum test meals (Ch.5-9) and under free-living conditions using a validated multiple-pass 24-hour dietary recall (Ch.8). Physiological markers (fat mass, fat-free mass) were measured using bioelectrical impedance and air plethysmography (Ch.6-9). Potential genetic markers of susceptibility (e.g. FTO, DRD2, Taq1A, CD36) and intermediary phenotypes of trait binge eating were examined using a candidate gene approach (Ch.9). Overweight-obese ‘binge-types’ had enhanced explicit liking for food overall, and greater implicit wanting for high-fat sweet foods compared to overweight-obese ‘non-binge types’. This was associated with an increased preference for, and consumption of these foods under laboratory and free-living conditions. Furthermore, obese ‘binge-types’ had greater levels of adiposity and reported greater food cravings and lower positive affect. Lean ‘binge-types’ had a greater implicit wanting for sweet foods, and exhibited a greater preference for these foods. Liking - iii - and wanting for food assessed by the LFPQ were related to energy intake and food choice. Notably, an enhanced liking for food in a fed state was associated with greater energy intake. In addition, implicit wanting emerged as an important process; while enhanced implicit wanting for sweet foods was a risk factor for overeating, greater implicit wanting for low-fat savoury foods appeared to be protective. Examination of the intermediary phenotypes revealed that variation in certain genes relating to reward, taste and obesity were associated with energy intake and food choice, body composition and food hedonics. This thesis has identified a distinct, ecologically valid, behavioural phenotype of obesity that is characterised by reliable psychological and physiological characteristics. Furthermore, the results confirm the value of distinguishing between liking and wanting for food and for studying their role in eating behaviour. - iv - Publications and presentations 3 Publications and presentations Publications Research Articles Dalton, M., Blundell, J. & Finlayson, G.

  • Serving America
    Proven leadership, a strong work ethic, discipline, teamwork—traits often used to describe those in our nation’s military. They are the same traits also associated with those who earn an M.B.A. The Simon Graduate School of Business has recognized this in its long tradition of accepting students with military backgrounds. As far back as the early 1970’s, instructors in the University of Rochester’s Naval R.O.T.C. program have taught naval science courses and attended Simon on Fridays through the Executive M.B.A. Program. During that time, Simon also offered an M.S. program in Systems Analysis, overseen by Ronald W. Hansen, senior associate dean for faculty and research, that enrolled and graduated approximately 75 mid-career military officers. Over the years, many Simon international students have performed military service in their home countries as well. Over the past two years, under Dean Mark Zupan’s leadership, the School has accelerated efforts to actively recruit M.B.A. candidates with military experience—either on orders from the military while on active duty or following several years of military service. “Since its inception, the Simon School has sought to attract the best and brightest candidates to attend its programs,” says Zupan. “Aside from today’s political climate, we continue to believe that the skills and traits inherent in current or former members of the military mirror those necessary for earning a graduate business degree and being successful.” Zupan ap- pointed Daniel H. Struble, retired Navy captain and former head of the University’s N.R.O.T.C.

    SubstanceSubstance AbuseAbuse ForFor FosterFoster Parents,Parents, CaregiversCaregivers && TeachersTeachers TeenTeen TrendsTrends-- WhatWhat toto KnowKnow 1: THEY’RE STRESSED. Today’s teens are stressed out. Factors include school work (they have more than ever. The Internet speeds things up but that just means that they're given even more work), college pressures, advanced placement courses in high school, and being overscheduled. The (stereotypical) Gen X slackers they are not. 2: THEY’RE HYPER-SEXUALIZED. Things like mini-skirts in schools, guys taking Creatine to get bulked up for sports, Real World MTV hook ups with young adults sleeping with strangers in each episode, online dating sites and Internet porn... This stuff is in their face every day. Teens are trying to act older, while older people are trying to act younger. So you've got kids trying to be adults, and adults (like Baby Boomers in particular) trying to be kids. It makes for a weird dynamic – and can confuse the teen as to who's the role model? Surprisingly, kids are more mature about things than you'd expect. 3: FRIENDS ARE THE NEW FAMILY. You say, “a person's friends have been important to every generation." But this cohort seems to equally value their circle of friends as their secondary family. They are far more group oriented than Gen Xers. Even if you think about Sesame Street, the show Xers grew up with ("We're all unique and different") compared to Barney, the show Gen Y grew up with ("Everybody is equal -- We're all the same.") Gen Y tends to be more conformist than Xers and Boomers were in their youth.
