Abstract:Excessive alcohol consumption has great effects on mortality rates, social costs and economic costs. Dual-process models offer an explanation for voluntarily structurally high alcohol consumption, which subsequently form a possible target for therapy. Cognitive Bias Modification (CBM) aims to change the alcohol-approach bias in heavy drinking individuals, and, thereby, reduce their alcohol consumption. The Breindebaas application is one of the first mobile versions of CBM which makes this form of therapy easier to access. The current study focuses on the psychometric properties of the Breindebaas application within the scope of a self-selected non-clinical sample.
