SOURCE 2.  Intrоductiоn In this study, reseаrchers exаmined the relаtiоnship between eating spicy foods and engaging in risky behaviors. They predicted that spicy food consumption would lead participants to make more decisions that could be characterized as risky. Participants Fifty-one Chinese college students participated (41% men; 59% women2). The participants’ average age was 19.78 years. The researchers did not report any additional race/ethnicity data beyond national origin. Method Participants completed a 35-item survey that measured their likelihood of taking risks in six categories (investment, gambling, health/safety, recreational, social, and ethical decisions). Survey items were rated on 7-point Likert scales, with higher scores indicating greater risk-taking.  Participants were then asked to eat a piece of bread. Approximately equal numbers of participants were assigned to eat either a piece of bread with very spicy chili sauce spread on it (spicy condition) or a piece of bread that did not have any spices or noticeable flavor (non-spicy condition).  After they ate the bread, participants completed a survey that measured their positive mood (10 items) and negative mood (10 items). Then, they performed a computerized version of a risk-taking task. In this task, participants received a $2,000 loan and were told to make as much money as they could in a card game. In the card game, they were presented with four decks of cards and asked to complete 50 card draws from the decks. Two of the four decks were associated with high rewards but high penalties (high risk), and two were associated with low rewards but low penalties (low risk). The percentage of high-risk decisions was calculated. Results and Discussion The researchers found that being in the spicy or non-spicy condition did not affect participants’ positive or negative moods. Table 1: Means/Standard Deviations of Positive and Negative Mood for Each Condition Being in the spicy or non-spicy condition did, however, significantly affect participants’ decisions in the risk-taking task. Those who ate the bread spread with spicy chili sauce were more likely to draw cards from the high reward/high penalties decks than were those who ate the non-spicy bread.
