Of the 101 articles identified as potentially containing relevant studies, 41 did not meet the above inclusion criteria. Moreover, an additional 20 articles (33% of the eligible articles) were excluded because at least two coders determined that they contained samples that overlapped with those of included articles. Of the 40 eligible, unique articles, only 14 contained sufficient information in tables and text to generate effect sizes. We therefore attempted to contact authors of the remaining 26 articles, and we received data for an additional 7 articles via email. Of the 19 articles still lacking sufficient data, we were able to calculate effect sizes from means and standard errors estimated from figures for 8 articles.2 The final sample comprised 29 published articles (73% of the eligible, non-duplicate articles) with k = 32 independent samples and N = 1,314 total participants. Of these samples, 19 (n = 716) tested differences in subjective response as a function of FH, and 13 (n = 598) tested differences as a function of typical alcohol consumption. See Tables 1 and 2 for included FH and typical consumption studies, respectively.
