In the lower aesthetic condition (b=.45, t(174)=4.05, p < .001), hungry (vs. satiated) individuals enjoyed the cupcake more. There was no effect of hunger in the higher aesthetic condition (b=.04, t(174) < 1, ns). Floodlight analysis revealed that for all values of hunger above 4.66, participants in the higher aesthetic condition enjoyed the cupcake significantly less (p < .05).
