Great work from @jonasdora.bsky.social . With a computational model of drinking choice in EMA, he shows that stress does bias people's preferences for alcohol relative to NA beverages. This replicates prior lab findings, but shows in EMA, the mean choice for alcohol is lower.

I'm really excited to share a new preprint! Lab studies have consistently shown that stress and negative emotions make people drink alcohol, but studies of daily life (EMA) keep failing to find it. What does that mean for the shared theoretical prediction both designs test? osf.io/preprints/ps...
