Table 2. Alcohol purchase task performance for hypothetical and actual rewards.

Associations between the Alcohol Purchase Task (APT) for hypothetical outcomes and the APT for actual outcomes under neutral conditions. APT Response Range indicates the range of participant responses on the hypothetical and actual-outcome APT assessments. The range of participant responses at each price point was identical on both assessments.
