Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 3 Dec 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
The purpose of this research is to test if playing games designed to improve an individual's executive function can change their views about the types of foods they eat. Executive function is a set of mental processes that people use every day to make decisions - such as what kinds of foods they choose to eat and when and where they eat those foods.
