Research grant to study neural and behavioral mechanisms underlying cognitive control in bulimia nervosa using neuroimaging and computational methods.
Description
This project aims to understand how predictions and value-based decisions about control may be abnormally influenced by eating in individuals with bulimia nervosa (BN), maintaining cycles of binge eating, purging, and restriction. The study combines fMRI, computational modeling, and real-time mobile assessments to examine neural and behavioral responses in women with BN during fasting and fed states.
