Automatic associations with the sensory aspects of smoking: Positive in habitual smokers but negative in non-smokers
Article Abstract:
A study that was carried out using non-relative variant of the Implicit Association Test (IAT), the single target IAT to further test smokers' and non-smokers' attitudes towards the sensory aspects of smoking is discussed. It is felt that measures of automatic associations could be a better predictor of subsequent smoking than self-report measures as craving is conceptualized as the strong activation of behavioral intentions.
