description <italic>Objectives</italic>. Until now, limited knowledge remains regarding the association among childhood obesity, cognitive behavior, and brain networks. Utilizing a publicly available dataset, we aimed to investigate the relationships between childhood obesity and functional networks during the stop-signal task. <italic>Results</italic>. Given the huge conflict-monitoring and inhibitory control demands of the task, both enhanced network connectivity and properties were observed under the &#x201C;No-go&#x201D; compared to the &#x201C;Go&#x201D; condition for both obese and non-obese preadolescents. Obese preadolescents exhibited significantly increased frontal-parietal, frontal-occipital, and frontal-temporal linkages, as well as heightened network efficiency under both &#x201C;Go&#x201D; and &#x201C;No-go&#x201D; conditions compared to non-obese counterparts. Additionally, significant correlations were found between network connectivity and properties and preadolescents&#x2019; body mass index (BMI), with their combination predicting BMI scores successfully. <italic>Conclusions</italic>. These findings support that childhood obesity is not simply a deviant habit with restricted physical health consequences, but rather associated with the atypical development of frontal-based networks involved in inhibitory control and cognitive performance.
