The research shows that the modelling effect is stronger in older children than in younger children, which also suggests that relying on external rather than
internal cues for how much to eat is a learnt behaviour.
Dr Woltin concluded: «Our findings suggest that mechanisms need to be put into place that make sure power holders do not favour
internal cues over other information available to them when they make important decisions.»
Dr Karl - Andrew Woltin from the Department of Psychology at Royal Holloway, who led these studies, said: «There is more and more evidence that the powerful more strongly rely on

Of those, the team, led by postdoctoral researcher Sohini Chakrabortee, focused on four prion candidates in the autonomous flowering pathway, which controls the timing of flowering in response to yet - unknown

They reported that
internal cues led to higher transverse abdominis muscle activity and higher external oblique muscle activity compared to no
internal cues.
During squats, training with higher loads and faster speeds appear to maximise erector spinae muscle activity, while
internal cues, unstable surfaces, using barbells with elastic resistance, changing footwear, or using a weightlifting belt do not affect erector spinae muscle activity.
They reported that
the internal cue for the external oblique produced higher external oblique muscle activity but lower rectus abdominis muscle activity.
During the squat, training with higher loads and faster speeds appear to increase erector spinae muscle activity, while
internal cues, unstable surfaces, using both barbells and elastic resistance, altering footwear, and using a weightlifting belt do not affect erector spinae muscle activity.
Assessing the effect of altering attentional focus, Karst et al. (2004) explored muscle activity of the abdominals when performing the curl up with and without
internal cues to activate either the rectus abdominis or the external oblique.
Compared to the normal bent knee sit up,
the internal cues resulted in higher rectus abdominis but the external oblique displayed lower muscle activity, possibly due to increased attention to trunk flexion.
Furthermore, rectus abdominis, external and internal oblique muscle activity was superior when performing the back squat following
the internal cue compared with performing the back squat on an unstable surface (a BOSU ball).
Sullivan et al. (2015) also studied the effect of
internal cues by having subjects focus on slowly and actively shortening and contracting the rectus abdominis and external oblique during a bent leg sit up.
Therefore,
an internal cue to brace the trunk appears to be a better method of increasing trunk muscle activity in the back squat than the more traditional method of using unstable surfaces.
Using
internal cues to focus on the muscle does not improve rectus abdominis muscle activity but leads to preferentially more external oblique muscle activity.
