Brief Summary

The investigators will examine compulsivity in those who have recovered from anorexia nervosa, using a multi-modal MRI study. The neural activation of key fronto-striatal areas will be explored using a task which examines set-shifting and reversal-learning, two key components of compulsivity. Additionally, the functional networks displayed during resting-state MRI will be examined between groups, as will the neurochemicals present (using Magnetic Resonance spectroscopy).
