Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Participants in the implementation intention group will complete an computer based implementation intention task that involves the generation of If-Then plans to overcome barriers to breakfast consumption (e.g. ‘If I wake up late on a weekday, then I will eat a tub of yoghurt for breakfast while waiting for the bus!’).

Participants will be asked to complete the planning task at the conclusion of the online survey. The task instructions are as follows: ‘We want you to plan to eat breakfast every day during the next week, paying particular attention to the situations in which you will implement these plans. You could choose to focus on planning what breakfast foods to buy, how you will prepare them or something more specific. For example, you may find it useful to state: “If I wake up late on a weekday, then I will eat a tub of yoghurt for breakfast while waiting for the bus!” Please write your plans in the space provided, following the format in the example (“if?…?then …”)’.

Follow-up data collection will occur one week after the baseline survey.
