a Social incentive delay (SID) task. Feedback on task performance (i.e., RT) was given via photos or videos also including verbal feedback. Task difficulty was adapted from trial to trial achieving an average hit rate of 83% using a staircase method. In the positive and negative condition, the given feedback depended on hits (green) vs misses (red) while feedback in the neutral condition was always neutral. b Trial design in the explicit cue rating task. c Example trials for each block in the Single Category Implicit Association Test (SC-IAT). The bottom texts indicate the correct response to the target presented in the center of the screen (left indicates pressing the x-key and right indicates pressing the m-key).
