Number of aftercare treatment days was positively associated with IQ (r=0.22; P<.04), but no other covariate was significant. After accounting for IQ effects, aftercare treatment was negatively associated with increased anxiety in stress and cue conditions (stress: r=-0.26; P<.02; alcohol cue: r=-0.23; P<.04; neutral: r=-0.20; P<.06) and with stress-induced alcohol craving (r=-0.22; P<.05), but not with cortisol to corticotropin ratio.
