Social/Party Incentives Increase the Risk of Heavier Alcohol Use in Impulsive Individuals.
Article in Substance use & misuse, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundImpulsivity is associated with excessive drinking and negative alcohol-related consequences. However, studies have not used an in-vivo approach (i.e., daily diary) to examine how the effect of impulsivity on excessive alcohol use could be moderated by context-specific mechanisms, such as incentives.
methodThe study recruited a sample of young adults (
resultsThe findings indicated a significant main effect of social/party incentives and alcohol incentives on the total number of drinks consumed, such that individuals decided to drink more alcohol on days when they reported higher levels of either incentive dimension. The results also revealed that only social/party incentives interacted with impulsivity, such that highly impulsive individuals decided to drink more at events with more social/party incentives.
conclusionsFindings highlight that highly impulsive individuals appear to be more responsive to social/party incentives at drinking events. Future research could benefit from continued exploration of social rewards as potential precursors to heavy drinking in highly impulsive individuals.
