abstract="OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of watching different types of video on energy expenditure. DESIGN: Randomised study assessing a &quot;pleasant,&quot; an &quot;amusing,&quot; an &quot;exciting,&quot; and no video film clips. SUBJECTS: 12 volunteers who did not know the purpose of the study. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Changes in energy expenditure, substrate use, heart rate, and aural temperature during each film clip. RESULTS: Energy expenditure was raised slightly (0.21 kJ/day) during the &quot;exciting&quot; film. Individual responses varied greatly. CONCLUSION: Watching different types of video seems to have little effect on resting metabolic rate.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
