Brain Function Messures of a Psychological Flexibility Skills Training Based on ACT Over Disordered Eating Behaviors

Starting soon · Not applicable

Conditions studied: General Population (no Specific Condition or Disease)

In brief

Overweight and obesity are an increasing tendencies worldwide. Disordered Eating Behaviors (DEBs) are feeding dynamics commonly present on them, as in Feeding Disorders (FD). These eating and body conditions are highly correlated with specific psychopathological symtoms, such as anxiety and depression, weight-related shame and stigma, and academic stress. Additionally, electroencephalographic findings suggest that weight- and eating-related conditions may be mediated by neural pathways specific to executive functions, such as selective attention and inhibitory control. Therefore, this cuasi-experimental design, pre- and post- measurement, longitudinal cross-sectional study aims to evaluate the effect of a training on psychological flexibility skills, based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) processes, on psychological, electroencephalographic and body composition measures.
