How go/no-go training changes behavior: A value-based decision-making perspective

Inhibitory-control training can change food consumption. Here, we review work on one specific inhibitory-control training, namely go/no-go (GNG), with the aim of clarifying how this changes behavior. Recent suggests it is unlikely that GNG trains general inhibitory control or even food-specific inhibition. Instead, recent research value items. These findings call for theorizing a task in which people merely respond not to items without any external reinforcement impact these We propose trained updated during by action and inaction decisions. This value-updating account descriptively accurate generates new questions testable hypotheses better understand underlying mechanisms GNG. The also prompts about everyday NoGo decisions stimulate moderate consumption patterns.
