Background: Children with loss of control (LOC) eating and overweight/obesity have relative deficiencies in trait‐level working memory (WM), which may limit adaptive responding to intra‐ and extra‐personal cues related to eating. Understanding of how WM performance relates to eating behavior in real‐time is currently limited. Methods: We studied 32 youth (ages 10–17 years) with LOC eating and overweight/obesity (LOC‐OW; n = 9), overweight/obesity only (OW; n = 16), and non‐overweight status (NW; n = 7). Youth completed spatial and numerical WM tasks requiring varying degrees of cognitive effort and reported on their eating behavior daily for 14 days via smartphone‐based ecological momentary assessment. Linear mixed effects models estimated group‐level differences in WM performance, as well as associations between contemporaneously completed measures of WM and dysregulated eating. Results: LOC‐OW were less accurate on numerical WM tasks compared to OW and NW (ps <.01); groups did not differ on spatial task accuracy (p =.41). Adjusting for between‐subject effects (reflecting differences between individuals in their mean WM performance and its association with eating behavior), within‐subject effects (reflecting variations in moment‐to‐moment associations) revealed that more accurate responding on the less demanding numerical WM task, compared to one's own average, was associated with greater overeating severity across the full sample (p =.013). There were no associations between WM performance and LOC eating severity (ps >.05). Conclusions: Youth with LOC eating and overweight/obesity demonstrated difficulties mentally retaining and manipulating numerical information in daily life, replicating prior laboratory‐based research. Overeating may be related to improved WM, regardless of LOC status, but temporality and causality should be further explored. Public significance statement: Our findings suggest that youth with loss of control eating and overweight/obesity may experience difficulties mentally retaining and manipulating numerical information in daily life relative to their peers with overweight/obesity and normal‐weight status, which may contribute to the maintenance of dysregulated eating and/or elevated body weight. However, it is unclear whether these individual differences are related to eating behavior on a moment‐to‐moment basis. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
