Following satiation (meal termination), satiety is a feeling of fullness lasting until the next meal. [1] When food is present in the GI tract after a meal, satiety signals overrule hunger signals, but satiety slowly fades as hunger increases. The satiety center in animals is located in ventromedial nucleus of the hypothalamus. [2]
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
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.
For example, food deprivation changes the value of food, making it more reinforcing, and it also evokes learned behaviors that have obtained food. Likewise, food satiation reduces both the reinforcing effect of food and the probability of food-getting behaviors. Note that a motivating operation differs from a discriminative stimulus (Sd).
Local nonsatiation (LNS [2]) is often applied in consumer theory, a branch of microeconomics, as an important property often assumed in theorems and propositions.Consumer theory is a study of how individuals make decisions and spend their money based on their preferences and budget.
Expected satiety is the amount of relief from hunger that is expected from a particular food. It is closely associated with expected satiation which refers to the immediate fullness (post meal) that a food is expected to generate.
