Study on decision-making and eating behavior in women

What is the purpose of this trial?

Females aged 18-45 years old needed for study on decision-making and eating behavior

We are looking for women with current symptoms of anorexia nervosa to participate in a brain imaging study on decision-making.

AND

We are also inviting women with a Body Mass Index (BMI) between 18.5 and 24.9 kg/m2 and no history of mental health conditions, brain injury, or neurological conditions, to participate in a brain imaging study.

You will complete two visits to the Yale University Magnetic Resonance Research Center. At the screening visit we will collect a blood sample and ask you some questions about your health history. The study visit will involve questionnaires, computer tasks, an MRI scan, and additional blood sampling. Then we will ask you to complete follow-up surveys at home.

You will be compensated up to $240 for your time.
