Study 2 fMRI task-performance data at baseline and follow-up

Variable Continuous nondrinkers (n = 20) M (SD) Heavy drinking transitioners (n = 20) M (SD)
Baseline
 2-dot accuracy, % 91.01 (8.24) 91.18 (11.27)
 6-dot accuracy, % 77.93 (12.24) 79.40 (8.07)
 2-dot reaction time, ms* 2,596.89 (217.96) 2,436.22 (223.73)
 6-dot reaction time, ms 2,714.00 (230.55) 2,599.56 (214.30)
Follow-up
 2-dot accuracy, % 96.11 (4.50) 94.86 (4.95)
 6-dot accuracy, % 84.04 (8.35) 80.16 (10.27)
 2-dot reaction time, ms 2,213.89 (125.95) 2,214.10 (96.40)
 6-dot reaction time, ms 2,369.32 (147.57) 2,405.50 (104.57)

Notes: Significant Time × Drinking Status interactions were observed in 2-and 6-dot reaction time. For both interactions, adolescents who transitioned into heavy drinking had attenuated decreases in reaction time at follow-up compared with continuous nondrinkers. fMRI = functional magnetic resonance imaging.

Continuous nondrinkers ≠ heavy drinkers, p < .05.
