Abstract
Mental health care providers should consider the effect of neurocognitive performance on presurgery psychiatric assessments for bariatric surgery and implications for psychosocial functioning postsurgery. The aforementioned effect that bariatric surgical intervention has on neurocognition underscores the complex interrelationship between metabolism and brain function. Future research should validate the use of neurocognitive screening tools presurgery and evaluate the impact of neurocognitive changes on neurocognitive, bariatric, and functional outcomes.
