История Лайзы Аллен рассказана мне самой Аллен. Исследование продолжается до сих пор и еще не опубликовано, поэтому ученые пока не дают интервью. Тем не менее основные выводы были подтверждены экспериментами и интервью с исследователями, работающими над аналогичными проектами, в том числе: A. DelParigi et al., “Successful Dieters Have Increased Neural Activity in Cortical Areas Involved in the Control of Behavior”, International Journal of Obesity 31 (2007): 440–48; Duc Son NT Le et al., “Less Activation in the Left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex in the Reanalysis of the Response to a Meal in Obese than in Lean Women and Its Association with Successful Weight Loss”, American Journal of Clinical Nutrition 86, № 3 (2007): 573–79; A. DelParigi et al., “Persistence of Abnormal Neural Responses to a Meal in Postobese Individuals”, International Journal of Obesity 28 (2004): 370–77; E. Stice et al., “Relation of Reward from Food Intake and Anticipated Food Intake to Obesity: A Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging Study”, Journal of Abnormal Psychology 117, № 4 (11/2008): 924–35; A. C. Janes et al., “Brain fMRI Reactivity to Smoking-Related Images Before and During Extended Smoking Abstinence”, Experimental and Clinical Psychopharmacology 17 (12/2009): 365–73; D. McBride et al., “Effects of Expectancy and Abstinence on the Neural Response to Smoking Cues in Cigarette Smokers: An fMRI Study”, Neuropsychopharmacology 31 (12/2006): 2728–38; R. Sinha & C.
