Summary

There are two major goals of this investigation. First, to develop pilot data to justify a larger randomized clinical trial of an intervention designed to train interoceptive signals (IS) and interoceptive responsivity (IR) in persons with Anorexia Nervosa (AN). Second, the investigators will determine whether persons with AN have similar or different IS and IR for heart rate while exercising as compared to age and gender matched controls.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL
