Subjective Behavioral Measures of Intoxication: analysis of variance and post hoc testing results. Participants rated their response to the alcohol challenge (0.35 or 0.7 g/kg) on the following visual analog scales (VAS). Questions were posed to the participants in the form of “How _______ do you feel right now?” or “How much do you (have) _______ right now?” and rated on a scale from 0 - ‘not at all’ to 100 - ‘extremely’

VAS ANOVA results post hoc results
Feel alcohol effects F(2,336) = 110.626, p < .001 All dose conditions different
Clumsy F(2,336) = 5.241, p = .006 High dose greater than placebo
Dizzy F(2,336) = 19.2, p < .001 All dose conditions different
Drunk F(2,336) = 81.904, p < .001 All dose conditions different
Floating F(2,336) = 27.503, p < .001 High dose greater than low dose and placebo
Great F(2,336) = 9.256, p < .001 High dose and placebo greater than low dose
High F(2,336) = 22.177, p < .001 All dose conditions different
Muddle/Confused F(2,326) = 7.972, p < .001 High dose greater than low dose and placebo
Nauseated F(2,336) = 5.007, p = .007 Low dose greater than placebo
Sleepy F(2,336) = 3.042, p = .049 Low dose greater than high dose and placebo
Slurred speech F(2,336) = 38.9, p < .001 High dose greater than low dose and placebo
Terrible F(2,336) = 6.56, p = .002 Low dose greater than high dose and placebo
Uncomfortable F(2,336) = 8.529, p < .001 Low dose and placebo greater than high dose
