High Risk For High Reward? Latent Profiles Of Impulsivity and Reward Sensitivity in Relation to Alcohol Use Outcomes Among College Students.

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
Impulsivity and reward sensitivity are risk factors linked to heightened alcohol use and related consequences. However, scant research has explored the influence of impulsivity and reward sensitivity on alcohol-related outcomes. The current study used latent profile analysis to determine (1) whether there were profiles of impulsivity and reward sensitivity and (2) if these profiles were characterized by alcohol use outcomes. Participants were 291 college students who completed a 40-minute online survey that assessed impulsivity, reward sensitivity, alcohol use, and alcohol-related consequences. A 5-profile solution best fit the data: (1) lowest positive/negative urgency; lowest sensation seeking/premeditation, moderate perseverance, and low reward sensitivity (33.5%), (2) highest positive/negative urgency, sensation seeking, and reward sensitivity, and low premeditation, and lowest perseverance (7.3%), (3) moderate positive/negative urgency and sensation seeking, low premeditation and perseverance, and high reward sensitivity (17.8%), (4) high positive/negative urgency, sensation seeking, perseverance, highest premeditation, and moderate reward sensitivity (6.9%), and (5) low positive/negative urgency and sensation seeking, highest perseverance, high premeditation, and lowest reward sensitivity (34.7%). Class 4 posed high risk for alcohol use. There was less variability in the number of consequences experienced. Findings suggested that different profiles of impulsivity and reward sensitivity were supported, and that specific profiles may pose risk for alcohol engagement.
