Text

We followed the PRISMA guidelines for systematic reviews (Liberati et al., 2009) (see Fig. 1). Following established methodology in this field, we began by having all three authors independently searched “alcohol”, “fMRI,”, “adolescent”, and/or “MRI” on PubMed. This yielded 965 peer-reviewed studies. Following the PRISMA guidelines, all publications were evaluated for their fit against our inclusion criteria (see Table 1 and Fig. 1). This resulted in 10 MRI and 11 fMRI studies. More detail regarding each study can be found in Table 2, Table 3. We encourage readers who seek greater methodological detail to access the resources available in the original manuscripts.
