Psychiatry and Clinical Neurosciences, EarlyView.
Aims Individuals with anorexia nervosa (AN) have an apparent increased capacity to delay gratification and forgo immediate food rewards in their long‐term pursuit of thinness. Prior research probed this capacity using delay discounting tasks that assess how rapidly the subjective value of rewards decreases as a function of time until receipt.

ABSTRACT Sustainable Development Goal 2 (SDG2) aims to end world hunger, but Africa is currently not on track to meet this goal.
