The dangerous part about this is that the hungry person doesn’t know their decision making is affected by hunger as it’s happening. It’s like when you get into an argument and you realize you’re suddenly shouting, it sneaks up on you. It’s unfortunate that, in this case, people’s lives were being impacted but it’s good folks are out there studying this!

When I first received the link to this post in my email, I had a small suspicion that the answer to your question would be hunger. Just from my experience as a leader, I’m usually sharper and more intuitive when I’ve fueled my body with nutrients that help me maintain my mental and physical energy. As I burn off my fuel, I make every attempt to fuel my mind and body so that I finish the day strong. Great post backed up by research!

Excellent research, though results are kind of disturbing.. think about it:
some innocent people may be doing time just because of an hungry judge 🙁

Anyways I do my best to not show in court in anytime..

Goodbye from Israel

I’m guessing skating competitions are like horse competitions, where the better riders come in later. Hence better scores as the show goes on.

It’s not MEAT – it’s carbs. Bread, pasta, anything with grains, especially. Meat is protein and amino acids, which facilitate brain function.

Hi. Thanks.

I really appreciate this one. I didn’t see the research, but I was wondering how they know it was the food and not simply anticipation of the break or the break itself? I couldn’t find Danziger’s actual report, but I did find some other source’s that quote Danziger’s research, and indeed one reported the following: “It’s not entirely clear whether the food itself […] was the key factor in judges’ decision-making, or whether it had more to do with the simple act of taking a break, walking around and taking a mental rest. Danziger’s “choice overload” theory suggests the latter […].” Quote from: healthland.time.com/2011/04/14/when-lunch-is-served-so-is-justice/

In psychology, we were taught to be very careful not to automatically attribute cause to correlation. It’s a big mistake I see a lot both in research and quotations of research.

Thanks again,
Oren

I failed my first driving test . It was right before lunch time. I never understood why- because I made no mistakes. My second test was after the Cop had eaten his lunch. I passed, even though I clearly knocked the cone over. I’ve always been puzzled. Thanks for the tip.
I think we should start an organization to ensure our judges are well fed always….(hint)

Great story about the Israeli judges, Derek and I love the energy in your videos. You’ve also given me some ideas about how to use calls to action in my own videos. Thanks!
