Summary

Individuals with AN tend to (1) be able to inhibit impulses and delay gratification, which impacts their decision-making and (2) have increased brain cognitive control response during decision-making, suggesting they “overthink” to make up for what they “under” sense internally. This response encourages the need for rules to guide behavior. Pathological anorexia nervosa eating may be related to an altered balance between decreased reward sensitivity and increased inhibition.
