The paper examines psychological mechanisms of addiction and the ability to derive pleasure as reward for food intake, which leads to excessive Body mass index (BMI). An experiment is conducted to establish whether people with greater BMI are more sensitive to reward. Related academic literature is reviewed touching on the Reinforcement Sensitivity Theory (RST), psychometric techniques of dietary restraint, etc.
