“…Stress and high BIS activity have also been shown to be moderately related (r = .48; van der , and have even been linked to being more likely to interpret situations as stressful (Gable et al 2000). These findings are supported by increased likelihood of being diagnosed with a major depressive disorder and anxiety disorder (Poythress et al, 2008), or anorexia nervosa (Claes et al, 2006;Harrison, et al, 2010). Gomez and Corr (2010) also found that individual with high sensitivity to punishment were more likely to endorse symptoms consistent with the inattentive subtype of ADHD, which has also been found to be a potent predictor of subjective negative mood states, psychopathologies, and generally low life satisfaction (e.g.…”

Using the constructs of the behavioral activation system (BAS) and behavioral inhibition system (BIS), as defined by the reinforcement sensitivity theory of personality, the purpose of this study was to determine new linkages between personality traits and interest/self-efficacy across Holland’s hexagon. Specifically, it was proposed that (a) the BAS would positively relate to global liking of vocational interest and negatively relate to global disliking of interest; (b) the BAS would positively relate to enterprising interest and social/enterprising self-efficacy; and (c) the BIS would negatively relate to realistic interest and self-efficacy in a sample of 265 college students. The hypotheses were mostly supported. The BAS was found to be meaningfully positively related to (a) global liking of vocational activities, (b) enterprising interest, and (c) social and enterprising self-efficacy. The BIS was found to be meaningfully negatively related to realistic interest but not realistic self-efficacy. Limitations, implications, and future research are discussed.

“…Although some studies have reported subscale scores in eating disordered samples (e.g. Claes et al, 2006), in line with most previous eating disorder research (see Culbert & Klump, 2005), the current study used the total scale score. Internal consistency coefficients ranging from .79 to .85 have been reported across populations of undergraduate students, psychiatric patients, eating disordered patients and prison inmates (Engel …”

Cognitive disinhibition and bulimia nervosa 2The present study investigated cognitive disinhibition in bulimia nervosa (BN), and examined whether impulsivity could account for this neuropsychological deficiency.Inhibitory processing of 13 women with BN (16-29 years) was compared against that of 13 healthy control participants matched for age, education and socio-economic status on a battery of widely used tasks: Stroop task, Haylings sentence completion test, excluded letter fluency and Matching Familiar Figures test. The women were also administered the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11). The BN patients displayed significant impairments on all inhibition measures, and posited significantly higher impulsivity scores than the controls. Moreover, controlling for impulsivity reduced the group differences in Stroop colour naming and excluded letter fluency to non-significance, indicating that poor inhibitory control in BN is at least partly attributable to an impulsive disposition.

“…Animals display anorexia that is operationally defined as reduced food intake despite the physiological energy demand; that is, after partial or total food deprivation (Jean et al, 2012b). Patients with anorexia nervosa can reduce food intake and even starve to death and often display emaciation, amenorrhea, motor hyperactivity or "overexercise" (Beumont et al, 1994;Casper, 2006), anxiety (Godart et al, 2000;Kaye et al, 2004), harm avoidance [excluding possible harm due to anorexia (Fassino et al, 2002)], perfectionism Herzog, 2011), obsessionality (Anderluh et al, 2003;van den Heuvel et al, 2005), and depression (Casper, 1998). Individuals suffering from anorexia nervosa can also struggle with bulimia (i.e., overeating with purging).…”

“…Indeed, drugs of abuse (e.g., cocaine, amphetamine) trigger adaptive responses including an increased activity of the cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)/protein kinase A (PKA) signaling pathway in the nucleus accumbens (NAc), a critical brain structure of the reward system (Koob and Nestler, 1997;Chen et al, 2009). The resultant phosphorylation of the cAMP-response element binding protein (CREB) dampens rewarding effects.…”

How Does the Brain Implement Adaptive Decision Making to Eat?

Adaptive decision making to eat is crucial for survival, but in anorexia nervosa, the brain persistently supports reduced food intake despite a growing need for energy. How the brain persists in reducing food intake, sometimes even to the point of death and despite the evolution of multiple mechanisms to ensure survival by governing adaptive eating behaviors, remains mysterious. Neural substrates belong to the reward-habit system, which could differ among the eating disorders. The present review provides an overview of neural circuitry of restrictive food choice, binge eating, and the contribution of specific serotonin receptors. One possibility is that restrictive food intake critically engages goal-directed (decision making) systems and "habit," supporting the view that persistent caloric restriction mimics some aspects of addiction to drugs of abuse.
