“…Indeed, individuals with BED demonstrate attentional biases for high-calorie food and negative weight-and shaped-related stimuli. 89,90 Similarly, several studies evaluating structural and functional brain processes associated with binge eating were conducted in the context of eating or in the presence of food. 32,33 In further support of this idea, participants in the binge-eating group in this study only reported higher behavioral impulsivity when experiencing negative affect or, conversely, to promote pleasurable feelings.…”

Objective: To examine the link between binge eating, executive functioning, and behavioral impulsivity.Method: Fifty women who reported engaging in weekly binge eating in the absence of regular compensatory behaviors and 66 women with no history of binge eating completed several self-report questionnaires and a brief neuropsychological battery, including the Wisconsin Card Sorting Task and Conner's Continuous Performance Task.Results: Hierarchical regression analyses revealed that groups did not differ in executive functioning after controlling for depression, anxiety, body mass, general intelligence, and psychotropic medication use. Correlation analyses suggest that individuals who endorse more frequent binge eating might have greater difficulties thinking flexibly or shifting attention. Individuals who binge eats are also more likely to behave impulsively, but only for emotional reasons.Discussion: Although this study is unable to determine whether these cognitive and behavioral factors precede or follow binge-eating episodes, outcomes have implications for treatment and prevention.

“…Differences emerged when viewing high palatable food only; women with BED demonstrated an EEG response pattern that suggested that palatable food stimuli consumed greater attentional resources (84). However, these findings were potentially confounded because BMI was not accounted for in the analyses (84).…”

“…Several studies have investigated the electrophysiological correlates of heightened attentiveness to motivational stimuli, including food cues (Leland and Pineda 2006;Nijs et al 2008Nijs et al , 2009Stockburger et al 2008Stockburger et al , 2009Babiloni et al 2009;Toepel et al 2009;Stingl et al 2010;Svaldi et al 2010). Only two studies have observed early-stage event related potential (ERP) differences between food and non-food items (Stockburger et al 2008;Stingl et al 2010), while the majority reported differences in long-latency ERPs (Stockburger et al 2009;De Pascalis et al 2010;Eimer and Kiss 2010;Stingl et al 2010;Eckstein 2011;Yu et al 2011).…”

Electrophysiological evidence for enhanced representation of food stimuli in working memory

et al. 2014

Studies from our laboratory have shown that, relative to neutral objects, food-related objects kept in working memory (WM) are particularly effective in guiding attention to food stimuli (Higgs et al. in Appetite, 2012). Here, we used electrophysiological measurements to investigate the neural representation of food versus non-food items in WM. Subjects were presented with a cue (food or non-food item) to either attend to or hold in WM. Subsequently, they had to search for a target, while the target and distractor were each flanked by a picture of a food or non-food item. Behavioural data showed that a food cue held in WM modulated the deployment of visual attention to a search target more than a non-food cue, even though the cue was irrelevant for target selection. Electrophysiological measures of attention, memory and retention of memory (the P3, LPP and SPCN components) were larger when food was kept in WM, compared to non-food items. No such effect was observed in a priming task, when the initial cue was merely identified. Overall, our electrophysiological data are consistent with the suggestion that food stimuli are particularly strongly represented in the WM system.
