Food Preferences & PWS/article critique

Abstract: A 5 page review of a research article that details the study conducted by Fieldstone, et al (1997). In this study, the research team explored the food preferences of patients suffering from Prader-Willi syndrome (who are typically obese), as compared with those of volunteers with normal weight and obese controls not afflicted with PWS. The study found distinct differences in their food choices, which suggests lines for future research. No additional sources cited.
