A critical review of front‐loading: A maladaptive drinking pattern driven by alcohol's rewarding effects
CE Ardinger, CC Lapish… - Alcoholism: Clinical …, 2022 - Wiley Online Library
Front‐loading is a drinking pattern in which alcohol intake is skewed toward the onset of
reward access. This phenomenon has been reported across several different alcohol self …
