Expressive Suppression of Emotions in Bulimia Nervosa: An Electroencephalography Study

Our findings suggest that individuals with BN might have difficulties in monitoring the emotion regulation process compared to healthy individuals. This suggests that other processes (e.g., metacognitive difficulties, self-esteem) rather than a failure to implement suppression, might underlie these results. However, further research is needed to validate this interpretation. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
