Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: History of trauma to the upper limbs or cervical spine Presence of neuromuscular disease, peripheral neuropathy, or any condition that affects finger motor function Severe alcohol use disorder/ alcohol dependence, past history of alcohol abuse, or screening positive for dependence or suspected dependence on an alcohol dependence screening questionnaire Pregnancy or breastfeeding Ongoing psychiatric treatment, or continuous use of psychotropic medication (e.g., antipsychotics, benzodiazepines) Hepatic dysfunction, or a history of diseases or pharmacological treatments that substantially affect alcohol metabolism Inability to rest on the morning following the experimental session Deemed unsuitable for participation by the principal investigator or subinvestigators

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Change in kinematic parameters of finger motion obtained from the smartphone-based handwriting task and thumb-movement task, including handwriting pressure, handwriting speed, variability, time to touch, and swipe speed

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Subjective intoxication scale score (every 30 minutes) Breath alcohol concentration (every 30 minutes) Blood pressure and peripheral oxygen saturation (SpO2) over time Total alcohol intake at the end of the experiment
