Making Meals With Pulses: An Observational Study
This study, called "Making Meals With Pulses," is looking at how people in America use beans, peas, and lentils (also known as pulses) when they prepare meals. Researchers want to understand what foods you choose when putting together a dish with more than two items, and how often you pick pulses. They also want to know how you feel about eating pulses. You might be able to join if you are 18 or older, can get to the research center on your own, don't smoke, aren't trying to gain or lose weight, and don't have any major health conditions that would prevent you from participating. The study will measure what foods you choose for a meal, what food you pick first, and how often you choose pulses, all within 30 minutes.
- Study design
- This is an observational study with a planned enrollment of 76 healthy individuals. It involves a computer task to investigate spontaneous food choices.
- What's involved
- Participants will complete a meal/dish-composition computer task. For each meal where pulses are chosen, you will be asked if the pulse was a substitute for another food.
- Compensation
- Not stated in the trial record.
- Follow-up
- The primary endpoints are measured at 30 minutes.
