Alcohol craving under stress in healthy young men: A randomized laboratory study
Experimental stress can increase alcohol craving, particularly in individuals with certain psychological profiles. Craving was linked to subjective and biological stress reactivity. These findings highlight the importance of individual differences in stress responses and provide targets for more personalized studies on stress-related craving and alcohol use.
