Inhibitory control
SSRT (Stop Signal Task)^a	261.9 (82.8)	254.7 (87.3)	272.9 (74.9)
Sensitivity to reward
AV (Balloon Analogue Risk Task)^a	24.3 (10.9)	24.9 (11.1)	23.5 (10.5)

Data are mean (SD), SD standard deviation, BMI body mass index, SDS-BMI standard deviation score of body mass index, SSRT stop signal reaction time measured in ms, AV adjusted value defined as the average number of pumps excluding balloons that exploded
^a In the group with complete data, at T0 scores on the SSRT were not available for three participants and scores on the AV were not available for two of them
