Project TEACH: The Eating, Affect, and Cognitive Health Study

NCT04121598 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 48

Last updated 2022-01-10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Specific aims are to:

1. Assess variability in performance on state-level measures of working memory (WM) delivered via Ecological Momentary Assessment (EMA). The investigators expect WM performance to vary over the course of a day across participants, and to be poorer and more variable among youth with overweight/obesity and loss of control (LOC) eating relative to overweight/obese and non-overweight controls.
2. Investigate the relationship between state WM and eating behavior. The investigators expect that poorer momentary WM will predict an increased likelihood of LOC eating as assessed via EMA, and greater energy intake and poorer dietary quality as assessed via dietary recall, across participants. The investigators expect these effects to be strongest among youth with concomitant overweight/obesity and LOC eating.
