ListOutcomeTime frameDescriptionSource
PrimaryfMRI activations during an emotional regulation task (a cognitive reappraisal task)Day 0The participant either reappraises or passively watches negative or neutral pictures and rates his affect (visual analogue scale: 0 to 10, high scores mean negative feelings).ClinicalTrials.gov
PrimaryfMRI activations during the inhibition of an ongoing motor response under an emotional condition (emotional stop signal task)Day 0
The participant is presented with a series of images comprised of neutral, positive, and negative categories and is instructed to categorize the images according to their valence (Go trials). Some trials include a stop signal indicating that the participant should inhibit his behavioral response and associated emotional reaction (Stop trials).
ClinicalTrials.gov
PrimaryfMRI activations during the performance of an emotion regulation task (an emotional Stroop task)Day 0
The participant is asked to count how many numbers are presented on the screen. Numbers may match the value of the number (congruent condition) or not (incongruent condition). The numbers are preceded by emotional stimuli (negative, positive, neutral). The participant also views the emotional stimuli pictures without counting numbers (view condition).

SecondaryDescription of eating behaviours: Binge eatingDay 0
The Binge Eating Scale (BES) is a 16-item self-administered questionnaire used to assess the presence of binge eating behavior indicative of an eating disorder. Eight items describe behavioral manifestations (for example, eating fast or consuming large amounts of food) and eight items on associated feelings and cognitions (for example, fear of not stopping eating). Each item has a response range from 0 to 3 points (0 = no severity of the BES symptoms, 3 = serious problems on the BES symptoms). Marcus et al. (1988) created a range of scores for the BES from 0 to 46 points: a score of less than 17 points indicates minimal binge eating (BE) problems; a score between 18 and 26 points indicates moderate BE problems, and a score of more than 27 points indicates severe BE problems. We consider binge eating as a categorical variable (significant binge eating if BES score ≥18).

SecondaryDescription of eating behaviours: Emotional eating, external eating, restraint eatingDay 0
The Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire (DEBQ) is administered using the French version to assess three components of eating behavior: emotional, external, and restrained eating. It is a self-report measure that contains 33 items. Thirteen items assess emotional eating, 10 items assess external eating, and 10 items assess restrained eating. Each item is rated on a 5-point Likert scale. Higher scores on each dimension mean worse eating behaviors.

SecondaryDescription of eating behaviours: Bulimic symptomatologyDay 0
The Bulimic Investigatory Test, Edinburgh (BITE) is a self-report questionnaire used to evaluate the presence and severity of bulimic symptomatology. It is composed of 33 items divided into two different subscales: a symptom subscale (30 items) and a severity subscale (3 items). Henderson and Freeman (1987) considered a BITE score under 10 points as indicative of no problem with eating behavior, a score between 10 and 20 points as indicative of abnormal eating patterns (from 15 to 20 points warns us of the presence of a possible subthreshold bulimia nervosa), and a score higher than 20 points constitutes altered eating patterns with a possible bulimia nervosa.

SecondaryDescription of psychological profiles (emotional, cognitive and personality): Emotion regulationDay 0
The Difficulty in Emotion Regulation Scale (DERS) is a 36-item self-report questionnaire. It assesses six different aspects of emotional regulation including non-acceptance of emotional responses (Non-Acceptance), difficulty engaging in goal-directed behavior (Goals), impulse control difficulties (Impulse), lack of emotional awareness (Awareness), limited access to emotional regulation strategies (Strategies), and lack of emotional clarity (Clarity). Higher scores on each dimension indicate greater emotion dysregulation symptoms.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryDescription of psychological profiles (emotional, cognitive and personality): Depression severityDay 0
Depression severity is assessed with the shortened Beck Depression Inventory (BDI). This is a widely used self-report scale consisting of 13 items, which has been validated in French. The total score is obtained by adding the scores of the 13 items and ranges from 0 to 39, with higher scores indicating greater depression symptoms.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryDescription of psychological profiles (emotional, cognitive and personality): Anxiety severityDay 0
Anxiety severity is assessed with the Spielberger State-Trait Inventory (STAI) which is a 40-item scale, using a 4-point Likert scale for each item. This scale was used to measure both trait anxiety (how dispositionally anxious a person is across time and situations) and state anxiety (how anxious a person is feeling at a particular moment). Higher scores indicate greater anxiety symptoms.
ClinicalTrials.gov
SecondaryDescription of psychological profiles (emotional, cognitive and personality): ImpulsivityDay 0
We use the UPPS-P Impulsive Behavior Scale to assess the facets of impulsivity, i.e., Negative Urgency, Positive Urgency, (lack of) Premeditation, (lack of) Perseverance, and Sensation Seeking. This shortened version (20 items) has 4 items per scale, and each item is responded to on a 4-point Likert-type scale. Higher scores on each scale indicate greater impulsivity symptoms. This self-report scale has received endorsement from the National Institutes of Health's (NIH) PhenX Toolkit as the recommended self-report measure of impulsigenic traits.
