Economic satiation, where increasing the amount of a good reduces the worth of each individual unit of it; Predator satiation, an anti-predator adaptation involving high population densities of the prey; Semantic satiation, where repetition of a word or phrase causes it to temporarily lose meaning; Satiation therapy, a type of behavioral therapy
Foods with the most satiation per calorie are often: high in certain proteinase inhibitors that suppress appetite - e.g. potatoes [7] [8] high in protein (which takes longer to digest than other energy sources) - e.g. meat; low in glycemic index (in which the carbohydrates take longer to digest) - e.g. oats
Predator satiation has evolved as a reproductive pattern in periodical cicadas of the genus Magicicada. [1]Predator satiation (less commonly called predator saturation) is an anti-predator adaptation in which prey briefly occur at high population densities, reducing the probability of an individual organism being eaten. [2]
The economic principle of satiation [1] is the effect whereby the more of a good one possesses, the less one is willing to give up to get more of it. This effect is caused by diminishing marginal utility , the effect whereby the consumer gains less utility per unit of a product the more units consumed.
Specifically, foods that have high expected satiety and high expected satiation tend to be selected in smaller portions (fewer calories). Therefore, they may be especially suited to diets that are designed to reduce energy intake. Some researchers also suggest that expected satiety is an important mediator of energy intake.

The standard definition of behavioral reinforcement has been criticized as circular, since it appears to argue that response strength is increased by reinforcement, and defines reinforcement as something that increases response strength (i.e., response strength is increased by things that increase response strength).
