“…Firstly, those with BED showed more difficulty in inhibiting their automatic attention to both food and non-food stimuli compared to HC (Leehr et al, 2016(Leehr et al, , 2018Schag et al, 2013), as well as delayed disengagement to food stimuli, indicating increased food-related reward sensitivity (Schag et al, 2013;Schmidt et al, 2016;Sperling et al, 2017).

In addition, Schag et al (2013) and Leehr et al (2018) measured second saccade errors, where a similar pattern was observed. In all three studies, individuals with BED made significantly more incorrect first saccades (looked to rather than away from the stimulus) than both weight-matched and normal weight HCs, who did not differ from one another.…”

Objective: Those with eating disorders (EDs) show attentional biases to disorder-relevant stimuli, such as food and body shape information. However, attentional bias research in EDs largely relies on reaction time based measures, which are limited in their ability to assess different components and the time course of attention. Eye-tracking paradigms have therefore been utilized to provide greater ecological validity, and directly capture the detailed sequence of processes in perception and attention. While numerous studies have examined eye movements in the mood, anxiety, and psychotic disorders, there has been a lack of studies in EDs. The purpose of this qualitative review is to provide a summary of eye-tracking studies in clinical ED populations.Method: The review was conducted using the PRISMA guidelines. Electronic databases were systematically searched to identify studies examining gaze parameters in ED compared to healthy controls (HCs). Thirty-one studies met inclusion criteria.Results: Across ED diagnoses, there was evidence of attentional biases towards food and body stimuli. In addition, differential patterns of attention to social information, and differences in smooth pursuit and saccadic eye movements were found in anorexia nervosa (AN).Discussion: Findings are discussed in relation to research in other psychiatric disorders, and recommendations for future studies using eye-tracking in EDs are given. The findings add to the wider literature on attentional biases in EDs, and provide potential avenues for treatment.Discusión: Los hallazgos se discuten en relación con la investigación en otros trastornos psiquiátricos, y se dan recomendaciones para futuros estudios que utilizan el seguimiento ocular en los TCA. Los hallazgos se suman a la literatura más amplia sobre los sesgos de atención en los TCA y proporcionan posibles vías para el tratamiento.

“…On the whole, research suggests that BN: (a) focus substantial attention on others' bodies (Blechert et al, , , ; Smeets et al, ; Spangler & Allen, ; Van den Eynde et al, ); (b) appear to be more drawn to than repelled by food stimuli (Berry et al, ; Blechert et al, ; Brooks et al, ; Friederich et al, , Smeets et al, ; but see Uher et al, ); and (c) show difficulty inhibiting behavior in the presence of food cues (Mobbs et al, ) as well as reduced conflict‐related brain signals to desirable foods when stressed (Collins et al, ). Finally, available work suggests that BED (a) show heightened conflict‐related brain signals to high‐calorie food (Geliebter et al, ) similar to AN and BN (Uher et al, ); (b) show greater impulsivity and difficulty focusing attention on various stimuli not limited to body and food (Leehr et al, ); and (c) may have an approach‐related food bias (Sperling et al, ).…”

A systematic and methodological review of attentional biases in eating disorders: Food, body, and perfectionism

et al. 2019

ObjectiveThe current systematic and methodological review aimed to critically review existing literature utilizing implicit processing, or automatic approach‐ and/or avoidance‐related attentional biases between eating disorder (ED) and nonclinical samples, which (a) highlights how psychophysiological methods advance knowledge of ED implicit bias; (b) explains how findings fit into transdiagnostic versus disorder‐specific ED frameworks; and (c) suggests how research can address perfectionism‐related ED biases.MethodThree databases were systematically searched to identify studies: PubMed, Scopus, and PsychInfo electronic databases. Peer‐reviewed studies of 18‐ to 39‐year‐olds with both clinical ED and healthy samples assessing visual attentional biases using pictorial and/or linguistic stimuli related to food, body, and/or perfectionism were included.ResultsForty‐six studies were included. While behavioral results were often similar across ED diagnoses, studies incorporating psychophysiological measures often revealed disease‐specific attentional biases. Specifically, women with bulimia nervosa (BN) tend to approach food and other body types, whereas women with anorexia nervosa (AN) tend to avoid food as well as overweight bodies.ConclusionsFurther integration of psychophysiological and behavioral methods may identify subtle processing variations in ED, which may guide prevention strategies and interventions, and provide important clinical implications. Few implicit bias studies include male participants, investigate binge‐eating disorder, or evaluate perfectionism‐relevant stimuli, despite the fact that perfectionism is implicated in models of ED.

“…A team of German investigators (Leehr et al, ) studied three groups, BED with obesity, no‐BED with obesity, and a control group with normal weight, to evaluate inhibitory control (a measure of impulsivity) under a negative mood condition. Individuals with obesity plus BED showed increased impulsivity and higher emotion regulation difficulties than he other groups.…”

Objective This virtual issue of the International Journal of Eating Disorders (IJED) is presented in conjunction with The Obesity Society (TOS) to coincide with Obesity Week held in Nashville, TN November 11‐15, 2018. Methods We present selected articles published in IJED in 2017‐2018 that are relevant to scholars who focus on obesity, eating disorders (EDs), or both areas of inquiry. Discussion We hope to promote discussion and collaboration between the obesity and ED fields, and stimulate additional work, including submissions to IJED.
