This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This research study is testing whether daily brain games — specifically designed to train your ability to control impulses around food — can help teenagers make better eating decisions. Researchers want to see if playing these games for three weeks on your phone can actually change how you respond to food and help you eat more healthfully.
Many teens struggle with weight, and current treatments don't work well for everyone. This study explores whether training your brain's natural ability to resist impulses — through simple, fun games — might be an easier and more enjoyable way to help you develop better eating habits.

You'll start by completing some questionnaires and computer-based thinking tasks to establish a baseline. Then you'll receive a brief lesson on nutrition basics. Over the next three weeks, you'll play short brain-training games on your phone every day — these games are designed to strengthen your ability to make intentional food choices. The study will track how feasible and acceptable this feels for you in your daily life.
