RESEARCHERS SEEK WOMEN RECOVERED FROM EATING DISORDERS
This study is being done at UCSD to determine if the brain can tell the difference in caloric content of food even if subjects cannot consciously tell. Women ages of 18-45, who are right-handed and are recovered from anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa are eligible. This study involves the completion of interviews, questionnaires, a taste test and an fMRI scan. The total time commitment for this study is approximately 6-8 hours, which will be spread out over the course of several weeks. The compensation for completion of this study and all related materials will be $150.
