Summary

Heightened performance monitoring and overcontrol (HPM/OC) is characterized by inflexibility, a need for control, perfectionism, anxious apprehension and high error monitoring. HPM/OC is a cross-diagnostic (transdiagnostic) characteristic occurring across multiple forms of psychiatric illness that emerge in adolescence, including anorexia nervosa (AN), obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD) and social anxiety disorder. This study characterizes behavioral and neural HPM/OC in healthy adolescents and adolescents with disorders characterized by HPM/OC, including AN and related eating disorders and anxiety, depressive and obsessive compulsive disorders. We then examine feasibility of a novel treatment for HPM/OC in adolescents, examining recruitment feasibility, exploration of the mechanism of HPM/OC and examining whether treatment is able to target neural and behavioral HPM/OC.
