Attentional Processing Biases in Young People With Binging and Purging Behavior
Our results disagree with previous research supporting the importance of ABs toward food and body shape cues in young people with threshold and subthreshold EDs and suggest these might not constitute a relevant target in the treatment of ED behavior. However, due to a heterogeneous approach to measuring ABs and multiple types of AB being described in EDs, further research is needed to clarify whether ABs map onto transdiagnostic models of behavioral dysregulation.
