Table 1 shows the descriptive statistics for all measures of the BART. Statistical analyses revealed that overall there was no significant difference [t (59) = −0.41; ns] in the mean number of pumps between the alcohol (M = 62.32, SD = 9.93) and the placebo condition (M = 63.19; SD = 6.27), indicating that, across all blocks, alcohol did not result in altered decision-making. However, a significant Condition × BART block interaction was found [F (2, 58) = 8.30, p < 0.001). Post hoc analyses for each group separately revealed a significant main effect of block in the alcohol group [F (2, 29) = 11.51, p < 0.001], as well as the placebo group [F (2, 28) = 3.13, p < 0.05]. Pairwise comparisons showed that the alcohol group significantly decreased the number of pumps from the first to the second block (p < 0.001), while there was no significant change from the second to the third one. The placebo group, by contrast, slowly increased the number of pumps throughout the task, showing a significant increase only between the first
