Our Replication cohort was drawn from among children and adolescents (N=323, 11-15 years old) participating in the Teen Alcohol Outcomes Study (TAOS) at the University of Texas Health Science Center at San Antonio (UTHSCSA). This ongoing longitudinal study aims to investigate how individual differences in genetic background, environmental experience, and neural function contribute to the emergence of psychopathology, with an emphasis on alcohol use disorders. The current analysis focused on 96 participants (48 girls, mean age 13.62 ± 0.99) who were of Caucasian origin and who had high quality fMRI data in the first wave of neuroimaging. The study was approved by the institutional review board at UTHSCSA. Consent for study participation was obtained from participants’ parents or guardians. Under age participants provided assent.
