The study aims to investigate the effects that mood tracking may have on the alcohol consumption of adults who consume more than 20 UK units of alcohol per week, classifying as high-risk drinkers. The intervention group will track their mood on a daily basis with a visual analogue scale, while the control group will report their daily time spent online. The hypothesis, based on a series of prior pilot studies on alcohol tracking methods, is that mood tracking can reduce alcohol consumption in high-risk drinkers and therefore be a suitable addition to interventions related to decreasing alcohol consumption in heavy drinkers. The study will be conducted online through the Prolific platform.
