| Brain region | Participant age | Measure used | Findings | Source |
|
| DLPFC | 9–18 yrs | Activation response before meal and after meal to pleasant, neutral, or food images (fMRI) | O/OW showed greater activation in DLPFC (before meal) and less reduction of activation in PFC (after meal) compared to HW in response to food images | Bruce et al. (2010) [36]; Davids et al. (2010) [56] |
| DLPFC | 14–16 yrs | Activation in response to milkshake receipt, milkshake anticipation, and food images (fMRI) | Dietary restraint scores positively correlated with activation in bilateral DLPFC in response to milkshake receipt

| OFC | 9–18 yrs | Activation response before meal and after meal to pleasant, neutral, or food images (fMRI) | O/OW showed greater OFC activation versus HW (after meal) | Bruce et al. (2010) [36]; Davids et al. (2010) [56] |
| OFC | 10–14 yrs | Activation while viewing food and nonfood logos | O/OW had significantly less activation versus healthy weight in response to food logos
| Bruce et al. (2012) [57] |
| OFC | 14–16 yrs | Activation response during Go/No-Go Task (fMRI) | Negative correlation between BMI and level of OFC activation during task | Batterink et al. (2010) [46] |
| OFC | 14–16 yrs | Activation in response to milkshake receipt, milkshake anticipation, and food images (fMRI) | Dietary restraint scores positively correlated with activation in right OFC in response to milkshake receipt

Burger and Stice 2011 |
| OFC | 14–17 yrs | Activation in response to most and least appetizing food images subject previously rated (fMRI) | BMI correlated positively with activation during initial orientation to food cues and predicted future increases in BMI
| Yokum et al. (2011) [58] |
| OFC | 15–19 yrs | Magnetic resonance imaging | BMI negatively correlated with OFC volume and positively correlated with greater number of commission errors | Maayan et al. (2011) [12] |
