Role: PI
Project Overview: Young adult drinkers with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), compared to their non-ADHD peers, are at increased risk for experiencing alcohol-related problems and developing alcohol use disorder (AUD). The proposed project assesses individuals both in the laboratory and in their own natural environment to study associations between executive functioning, craving, and alcohol-related behaviors over a one-year period to inform etiological models underlying ADHD and AUD.
