Reduction in Valence-Differentiating Neural Activities in Binge Drinking and Its Comorbidities: An Exploratory Study of the Human Connectome Project Data

Binge drinking is associated with altered reward and punishment processing. Reward and punishment are both salient but modify behavior via distinct mechanisms. Here, we investigated how binge and non-binge drinkers differentiate reward and punishment and whether the differences associate with clinical comorbidities.
