Desire and craving ratings vary significantly for moderate to heavy alcohol consumers: Differences in behavioral ratings and brain network topology
CONCLUSIONS: Overall, these results demonstrate that the difference between ratings of craving for alcohol and desire for alcohol are not trivial. These different ratings and their association with alcohol consumption or abstinence experiences may have significant biological and clinical implications.PMID:36997344 | DOI:10.1111/acer.15066 (Source: Alcoholism, Clinical and Experimental Research)

Goal commitment and goal confidence mediate the path between desire to get drunk and binge drinking among young adults receiving text message goal-related feedback
This study sought to determine whether drinking limit goal commitment and goal confidence mediate the association between desire to get drunk and binge drinking (4+ drinks for a woman and 5+ drinks for a man on a given occasion) among young adults exposed to text message goal-related feedback.METHODS: Participants were 297 young adults with hazardous drinking randomized to one of two text-message interventions incorporating drinking limit goal-related assessments and feedback who also completed at least two days of assessments over 12 weeks of intervention exposure. On the two days per week they typically drank alcohol, pa...

Multilevel longitudinal relations among impulsive traits, positive expectancies, and binge drinking from late adolescence to adulthood: A developmental test of acquired preparedness
CONCLUSIONS: Findings suggest that acquired preparedness effects may be between-person rather than within-person. However, several within-person developmental-specific relations among conscientiousness, sensation seeking, and binge drinking were observed, outside of expectancies. Findings are discussed in terms of theory and prevention.PMID:36977505 | DOI:10.1111/acer.15064 (Source: Alcoholism, Clinical and Experimental Research)

Feasibility of remote self-collection of dried blood spots, hair, and nails among people with HIV (PWH) with hazardous alcohol use
CONCLUSION: An increase in remote self-collection of biospecimens may significantly advance the field of HIV-related research, permitting the collection of specimens without resource-intensive lab personnel and facilities. Further research is needed on the factors that impeded participants' ability to complete remote biospecimen collection.PMID:36949025 | DOI:10.1111/acer.15063 (Source: Alcoholism, Clinical and Experimental Research)
