Impulsivity and risk-taking are multi-dimensional constructs that have been implicated in
heavy drinking and alcohol problems. Our aim was to identify the specific component of …

Background: Higher levels of impulsivity have been implicated in the development of alcohol
use disorders. Recent findings suggest that impulsivity is not a unitary construct, highlighted …

Rationale Hazardous drinking is associated with both increased impulsivity and automatic
approach tendencies elicited by alcohol-related cues. However, impulsivity is a multi …

Background: Recent work suggests that 2 biologically based traits convey risk for alcohol
misuse: reward sensitivity/drive and (rash) impulsiveness. However, the cognitive …

Aims We investigated reciprocal prospective relationships between multiple behavioural
impulsivity tasks (assessing delay discounting, risk‐taking and disinhibition) and alcohol …

Background Although there is considerable support for the relationship between impulsivity
and alcohol use, the use of multidimensional conceptualizations of impulsivity and alcohol …

BACKGROUND: The degree to which distinct behavioral components of impulsivity predict
alcohol consumption is as yet not well-understood. Further, the possibility that this relation …

Impulsivity may have different facets that contribute to drinking patterns in young people.
This research examined how aspects of impulse control, especially the ability to inhibit a …

Heightened impulsivity is a risk factor for problematic alcohol use among emerging adults.
However, recent literature suggests that impulsivity is comprised of several facets that have …

Trait impulsivity is a reliable, robust predictor of risky, problematic alcohol use. Mounting
evidence supports a multidimensional model of impulsivity, whereby several distinct traits …
