The intensity ratings for food odors decreased from low (mean = 6.29, SD = 1.27) to high cognitive load (mean = 5.87, SD = 1.42, and p = 0.011), just like the intensity ratings for non-food odors decreased when low (mean = 5.47, SD = 1.39) and high (mean = 5.24, SD = 1.29, and p = 0.170) cognitive load conditions are compared, however, this comparison did not reach statistical significance ( Figure 3 ).
