BAC’s were examined using a one sample t-test comparing those in the alcohol condition against a mean of 0. All other variables were examined using ANOVA.

Notes. BAC = blood alcohol concentration. SIS = subjective intoxication scale. SIS and Highest Intoxication were scored on scales ranging from 0 to 100. Groups with non-overlapping superscripts differed significantly (p < .05).
