Note. All effects that were significant survived Benjamini-Hochberg correction; BMI = body mass index. RAVLT = Rey Auditory Verbal Listening Task; NIH = National Institutes of Health; BIS/BAS = Behavioral Inhibition System/Behavioral Approach System; UPPS = Urgency, Premeditation (lack of) Perseverance (lack of), Sensation Seeking, Positive Urgency, Impulsive Behavior Scale. Flanker Inhibitory Control and Attention Task was abbreviated in the table to Flanker Inhibitory Control; Pattern Comparison Processing Speed was abbreviated to Pattern Comparison in the table
