No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this proposed project is to test whether several biological factors (such as elevated brain reward region and attention region response to high-calorie foods, weaker inhibitory region response to high-calorie foods, habitual caloric deprivation, and elevated limbic region responsivity) increase the risk of problematic eating (bingeing and purging) in female adolescents.
