This article has been retracted at the request of the Authors. The Authors requested the retraction of the paper after detecting a critical error in the preprocessing script. Specifically, when selecting trial types to average reaction times for the calculation of the approach bias the Authors mistakenly treated a filtering variable - containing values of “0” and “1” - as logical, rather than as character-coded values. As a result, instead of averaging across all relevant trials in a condition, the approach bias was calculated based on the first trials only. To assess how severely this error affects the findings, the Authors re-ran all analyses from the published manuscript using the corrected preprocessing routine. Unfortunately, this correction substantially altered the results. The Authors found that the key findings are not robust to the corrected approach - with the only result remaining being that the link between approach bias and intake is moderated by dietary intentions. The Authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused.
