Approach Bias Modification with Implementation Intentions

Participants in each experimental condition will perform different variants of the Approach-Avoidance Task (i.e., a task that is widely used in the litterature to assess and modify the approach bias toward alcohol - the relative ease to approach alcohol rather than to avoid it). Participants in the classical Approach Bias Modification conditions will perform a version of this task which will train them to (almost-)systematically emit an avoidance response toward alcohol ; Participants in the Approach Bias Modification with Implementation Intentions condition will perform the same version of the task but will additionnaly have to complete a planning intervention (i.e., implementation intentions) to help them avoiding alcohol; Participants in the Sham-training condition will perform a version of this task which require them to approach alcohol as often as they have to avoid it (i.e., no real training).
