Study Summary
This study examines the influence of acute fasting and eating on self-control in adult females with and without bulimia nervosa (BN). Specifically, the study team is investigating whether differences in behavior and brain activation in response to computer tasks after fasting and after eating a meal could help to explain the symptoms of bulimia nervosa. Data will be collected using questionnaires and a technology called magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Primary Outcome
Frontostriatal activation modulated by the predicted need for inhibition (P(stop) (i.e., parametric modulation by p(Stop)), measured as the mean BOLD signal across voxels within the region of interest (ROI). Positive values indicate that neural activation increases as the predicted probability of needing to stop increases (i.e., stronger responses when stopping is predicted to be more likely), whereas negative values indicate that activation decreases as the predicted probability of needing to s
Interventions
- OTHER fasting state
- OTHER fed state
- OTHER magnetic resonance imaging
