The third investigation, which is the basis for the current predictive analyses, generated data for a new group of drinking but not alcohol-dependent college students who participated in three cognitive tasks (Paulus et al., 2012; Schuckit et al., 2012; Trim et al., 2010). The earlier papers for this project focused on cognitive tests related to executive functioning (i.e., VWM and a stop signal task), and were published sequentially as the original data developed by using smaller subsets of the subsequent final sample (Schuckit et al., 2012; Trim et al., 2010). The manuscript for which data regarding fMRI results related to an emotional face recognition paradigm utilized the largest number of subjects and was the final paper in this series. Thus, the follow-up data in the current study focus on results from subjects who participated in the emotional face recognition paradigm as reported by Paulus et al. (2012).
