Go/no-go training changes food evaluation in both morbidly obese and normal-weight individuals.

Objective: Not responding to appetitive food items in the go/no-go training has been shown to reduce the evaluation of these items in normal-weight university students. In this preregistered study, we administered an identical go/no-go training in both morbidly obese individuals and normal-weight university students, to assess whether findings from laboratory studies on go/no-go training performed in university environments can be translated to clinical settings.

Method: Obese individuals (N = 59, 14 males, M = 46.
