英文文献作者：Richards, Timothy J.,Patterson, Paul M.,Tegene, Abebayehu
英文文献摘要：
This study tests for a rational addiction to food nutrients as a potential explanation for the obesity epidemic. A random coefficients (mixed) logit model applied to household scanner data finds evidence of a strong, forward-looking addiction to carbohydrates. Consequently, price-based policies may be effective in controlling excessive nutrient intake.
