About this study

This trial is testing how alcohol affects decision-making in people with PTSD. It's looking at whether alcohol changes the way people deal with situations where they want to approach something but also avoid it, which can be related to PTSD symptoms. The goal is to understand if this interaction between alcohol and these decisions increases the risk of developing problems with alcohol use.
