Qualitative variation refers to variations in shape rather than steepness of the discount function, such as positive discounting, ze ...

Abstract:
... Appetite traits have multifactorial origins. In association with environmental and genetic factors, they could become problematic and lead to Feeding or Eating Disorders (FED). As the DSM-5 classification is not suitable for pediatric FED, another way to describe eating behavior is to distinguish the clinical profiles of "small eater" and "big eater". The aim of this study was to identify socio-de ...
