Abstract

This study examines the association between food addiction and inhibitory deficits in individuals with obesity. Using the Yale Food Addiction Scale 2.0, Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire, and Barratt Impulsiveness Scale, along with a Go/No-Go task, the study compares obese and healthy controls to explore prevalence differences and correlations.
