Participants completed measures of recent drinking behavior during the laboratory session. Three primary outcomes were evaluated. Average number of drinks per week was assessed with the Daily Drinking Questionnaire (DDQ; Collins, Parks, & Marlatt, 1985). Recent heavy episodic drinking and peak lifetime consumption were assessed using items based on the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) question set (NIAAA, 2003). Specifically, participants reported the number heavy drinking episodes (defined as 4+ drinks for women or 5+ drinks for men) in the past 30 days and the lifetime maximum number of drinks consumed within a 24-hour period.
