Effect of resistance exercise on attentional bias toward food in overweight female college students: An event-related potential study

These results indicate that the onset of attentional engagement and attentional orientation toward food cues occurred significantly earlier after resistance exercise. This study provides novel insights into the neurocognitive mechanisms underlying resistance exercise-induced modulations of attentional processing of food-related stimuli in overweight females, offering both theoretical contributions to exercise cognition and practical implications for weight management interventions.
