Interacting effects of age and AUDIT-c scores on Now bias. Plot depicts the ratio of immediate reward choices (ICR) in the delay-discounting task as a function of AUDIT-c (high/low) and age (adult/emerging adult) groups. There were significantly interacting effects of age and AUDIT-c on ICR, [F_(1,157) = 8.32, p = 0.004, η² = 0.047]. This result reflects significantly higher average ICR in the high AUDIT-c versus low AUDIT-c adults [t₍₂₇₎ = -2.28, p = 0.031, d = -0.88], but no difference between AUDIT-c groups among emerging adults [t_(115.216) = 1.018, p = 0.311, d = 0.17]. low AUDIT-c: <4; high AUDIT-c: ≥5; AUDIT-c, AUDIT consumption subscale. ^∗p < 0.05.
