Well-characterized databases are crucial for meaningful and comparable studies, and the Food-pics_extended database is a widely used food stimulus database that has now been enriched with fiber ratings, providing important nutritional value for diet-related research.
Well characterized databases used for experimental purposes with extensive meta-data are essential for conducting meaningful and comparable studies. The Food-pics_extended database (Blechert et al., 2019) is one example for a widely used food stimulus database (original publication Blechert et al., 2014: 285 citations, and 2019: 32 citations). Indeed, meta-data on low level and high level image characteristics is broad, yet fiber ratings are not included, limiting its use in diet-related studies. Therefore, we developed fiber ratings per item (n = 562 stimuli), based on mean values of four non-expert raters. Ratings show good reliability (ICC = 0.77) and meaningful ranges per food type (mean fiber per 100 g by food type min(beverages) = 0.04 +/- 0.04 g and max(Ready-to-eat) (savories) = 4.49 +/- 1.58). The newly provided fiber ratings enrich the already valuable database and extend it by an important nutrient value for human and planetary health.
