Abstract
Attentional bias for food cues (ABFC) has been linked to food craving, the inability to lose weight, and obesity. For this study, we explored the presence of ABFC in a bariatric group, using a food-modified Stroop task and visual task, with EEG and eye-tracking recording, respectively. Our data showed an increased attentional bias for appetizing food, a decreased bias for diet food and a prolonged brain processing of food stimuli in the bariatric group.
