Cognitive processing in anorexia nervosa. A disturbance in automatic information processing

Neuropsychobiology
B J StruppH Gwirtsman

Abstract

Anorexia nervosa patients were found to perform as well or better than control subjects on cognitive tasks that both require considerable cognitive effort and 'direct' the subject to the information that will be tested, but do more poorly than controls on tests that assess automatic or incidental processing of information. The implications of this particular pattern of cognitive alterations for theories concerning the etiology of anorexia nervosa are discussed.
