Summary
This study explores whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can reduce the impulsive, risky behaviors that often occur after drinking alcohol. Twelve moderate drinkers aged 21-29 will attend five visits, receiving either real or fake TMS after consuming an alcoholic or placebo drink. They will then complete tasks measuring self-control and decision-making. The goal is to understand if TMS can improve inhibitory control during intoxication, which could one day help prevent alcohol-related accidents or harm.
