Cognitive Functioning as a Predictor of Weight Gain in Anorexia Nervosa
These findings suggest that stronger central coherence may support weight gain in AN. The observed association between both high and low levels of inhibitory control and less favorable weight trajectories is novel and may point to the relevance of self-regulatory functioning in recovery; however, further investigation is needed. Replication and studies with longer follow-up are necessary to clarify these associations and inform more tailored treatment approaches.
