Composite BAC and subjective effects data for all participants (N=50). Each column indicates the number of minutes post-consumption that measurements were completed. All subjective effects ratings were given on a scale of 1–100. Intoxication = participant’s subjective level of intoxication; Like = how much participant likes the effects she is feeling; Desire = participant’s desire to consume alcohol; Stimulation = participant’s subjective level of stimulation.
