Expectations versus reality: Associations among anticipated, natural environment, and laboratory-derived alcohol stimulation, sedation, and reward.

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
Subjective responses to alcohol (alcohol stimulation, sedation, liking, and wanting more) are important predictors of hazardous drinking. These are typically measured in real time via fixed-dose laboratory alcohol challenge or ecological momentary assessment (EMA), methods that can be prohibitively time- and resource-intensive. The present study examined the correspondence between self-report measures of anticipated alcohol responses and those same responses measured via the Biphasic Alcohol Effects Scale, Brief Biphasic Alcohol Effects Scale, and Drug Effects Questionnaire during a naturalistic drinking episode and a controlled laboratory alcohol challenge. Participants were 220 heavy-drinking adults (42% female;
