This collection of discussions demonstrates strong agreement and high interest in the landmark longitudinal research on alcohol responses and disorder development, with phrases like 'test incentive sensitization' and 'predicts AUD' reflecting enthusiasm and recognition of the study's importance, while the tone underscores the perceived transformative impact on addiction science.
AgreementStrong agreement
Most discussions agree with the study's findings that positive subjective responses to alcohol predict the development of alcohol use disorder, referencing specific results such as increased 'wanting' and 'liking' over time.
InterestHigh interest
Comments demonstrate high interest by highlighting the longitudinal nature of the research and its implications for understanding AUD, with phrases like 'interesting paper' and 'impressive retention'.
EngagementHigh engagement
The discussions show deep engagement through references to scientific concepts like 'incentive sensitization' and 'sensitization of wanting', and sharing examples of the study's methodology and results, indicating thoughtful analysis.
ImpactHigh impact
Many posts emphasize the significance of the findings for future prevention and treatment of AUD, calling the study a 'game changer' and underlining its relevance to clinical practices and addiction understanding.
Abstract in brief
This study tracked young adults over 10 years to examine how their immediate reactions to alcohol, like feeling stimulated or liking the effects, influenced the development of Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD).
People who initially experienced stronger positive effects, such as stimulation and wanting more alcohol, were more likely to develop AUD later, and these feelings became even more pronounced in those with more severe symptoms.
The research suggests that monitoring how individuals respond to alcohol early on can help with preventing, identifying, and treating AUD, as these responses change systematically over time.]

New longitudinal study with impressive retention shows that subjective alcohol responses INCREASE over time for those with alcohol problems, not decrease as is common wisdom.

This is how to test incentive sensitization in humans! Across ten years. Wanting increases, but liking also persists: no generalized loss of reward capacity. Thank you, Andrea King, Ashley Vena, Deborah Hasin, Harriet deWit, Sean O’Connor, and Dingcai Cao.

For decades we’ve heard patients report this difference in AUD and now it’s confirmed. Patients have been telling us this for decades.

Longitudinal study: Individuals who reported the greatest alcohol stimulation, liking, and wanting at the initial alcohol challenge were most likely to have developed AUD 10 years later. After 10 years, 21% of participants met criteria for past-year AUD https://t.co/fgp3YMVQVA

Drinkers who are sensitive to alcohol’s pleasurable effects are at heightened risk to develop alcohol use disorder, and these stimulating and rewarding alcohol effects increase over a decade as the disorder progresses.
