Les stimuli qui approchent sont évalués plus négativement que s’ils restent à distance : on parle d’aversion à l’approche (Mühlberger et al., 2008). Si l’effet semble robuste, on observe certaines inconsistances dans la littérature et les mécanismes sous-jacents restent à […]

Transitioning to plant-based diets is crucial for building more sustainable food systems and mitigating climate change. However, understanding how laypeople perceive the reduction of meat consumption and how these representations influence food preferences remains underexplored. According to Action […]

Alcohol-use disorders (AUD) risk is highly prevalent in university students, and is associated with both intraindividual (e.g., metacognitions, personality traits) and interindividual (e.g., social motives, drinking identity, drinking norms) psychological factors. Binge drinking (BD) also […]
