Implicit and explicit drinker identities interactively predict in-the-moment alcohol placebo consumption

摘要: © 2016 The Authors.Introduction: Having an identity as a 'drinker' has been linked to increased alcohol-related harm, self-reported consumption and intention engage in risky drinking behavior. These effects have observed when identities measured using explicit measures (e.g. via questionnaires) implicitly Implicit Association Tests [IATs] adapted measure identity). Little research used actual behavioral alcohol in-the-moment, nor compared the of implicit directly. Methods: Participants' (n = 40) associated with being drinker were measured. Attitudes towards one's own explicitly. Participants completed Pouring Taste Preference Task [PTPT] involving rating non-alcoholic wine. This provided (pouring), implementation into Results: Results showed interactive effect on attitudes Explicit predicted drinking, but not Neither amount poured. consumed. A greater proportion wine poured was by higher absent. Conclusion: results suggest that may be more those beliefs about one is aware than intention.
