Caton SJ, Ball M, Ahern A, Hetherington MM. Dose-dependent effects of alcohol on appetite and food intake. Physiology & Behavior. 2004 Mar;81(1):51-58. doi:10.1016/j.physbeh.2003.12.017
Why we cite it
Provides the primary experimental evidence that alcohol stimulates appetite in a dose-dependent manner, with data on how much more people eat and what they choose. This is the sole citation backing 4 of 5 bullets in kal01 (alcohol and appetite). The within-subjects crossover design with measured food intake (not just self-report) gives strong internal validity for the appetitive effect of alcohol.
