What you’ll do
Participation involves attending 1 required session at the Behavioral Health Research Lab near CMU’s campus and completing up to 3 sessions remotely over the phone and online. The first session can take up to 2-3 hours, and includes an interview and questionnaires. The second session takes 5-7 hours, and participants may be asked to drink an alcoholic beverage in the lab with their partner so that the study team can examine the effects of alcohol on your thoughts, mood, memory, and performance on computer tasks. Participants will also answer questions on a smartphone after the drinking session and complete follow-up interviews online and over the phone at 6 and 12 months after the last visit.
