Popis: International audience; OBJECTIVE: Numerous studies highlight the involvement of cognitive factors in the development and maintenance of obesity. We aimed to measure attentional biases (AB) toward foods (i.e. the individual tendency to automatically orient one’s attention toward food stimuli) in normal-weight (NW) individuals and those with overweight (OW) and obesity (OB). We evaluated whether implicit or explicit exposure to olfactory food cues could modify AB. METHODS: Eighty-five participants with different weight statuses took part in this experiment. We measured AB toward food pictures with an adapted visual probe task and the variations in AB while participants were primed with olfactory food cues (within-subject design: no odor/low-energy-dense food odor /high-energy dense food odor). Odors were non-attentively perceived during session 1 (implicit condition) and attentively perceived during session 2 (explicit condition). RESULTS: Our results highlighted AB toward food pictures, especially when foods were energy dense, regardless of weight status (p
