“…Subjects in alcohol experiments commonly report that they feel more talkative, indicating that affiliative motivation may be part of the transient euphoric syndrome, found particuarly in male social drinkers (Ekman, Frankenhaeuser, Goldberg, Bjerver, Jarpe & Myrsten, 1963;Ekman, Frankenhaeuser, Goldberg, Hagdahl & Myrsten, 1964;Myrsten, 1971; see also the recent review by Freed, 1978). Myrsten (1971) observed that euphoric effect increased when the subjects were given occasion to talk to each other compared to conditions when they were not, and laboratory settings of a more impersonal nature have sometimes failed to induce euphoric effect altogether (Frankenhaeuser, Myrsten & Jarpe, 1962;Warren & Raynes, 1972). Since affiliative subjects have been shown to look more at each other in affXative situations (Exline,1%3), increased EC should follow as a consequence of increased affiliative motivation.…”

The effects of alcohol (0.9 g ethanol/kg body weight) on mood and eye contact were studied in male and female subjects engaged in dyadic interaction with unfamiliar, continuously gazing like‐sex or opposite‐sex interviewers. Thirty‐two volunteer students served as unpaid subjects in a 2 × 2 × 2 factorial design with four subjects per cell. Significant subjective increases in affiliative mood were observed in male as well as in female subjects at a mean BAC of 1.08 ± 0.12 g/l. Significant interactive effects were observed as functions of the sex of the subject and interviewer with alcohol/placebo treatment in analyses of pretreatment/post treatment change for two measures of gaze duration. The results were discussed in terms of the Argyle‐Dean conflict model and it was concluded that alcohol did not induce the net approach gain expected as a result of increased affiliation and/or reduced interpersonal avoidance. Sober subjects tended to look at their like‐sex interviewers more and drunk subjects less, the trend being particularly evident in female subjects. It was suggested that the effects of alcohol on eye contact may be strongly associated with sex‐roles.

“…Decreased friendliness resulting from E has been reported in experiments with the POMS.2. 25 In our experiment, friendliness de-creased further when Z was combined with E, indicating that Z modifies the effect of E on mood and, therefore, that the drugs interact centrally. Since E has positive reinforcing and aversive effects,I8 it is possible that Z acts by modifying the balance of such effects, either by making the subjects perceive E as less reinforcing, more aversive, or both, which might lead to decreased E intake.Ig Experiments in rats indicate that Z can induce marked aversion to E.14 Since the effects of Z on E drinking are not related to a toxic, aversive, alcohol-sensitizing reaction or antidepressant or anxiolytic effects,'"t is possible that the drug interferes with the neurobiologic mechanism regulating E intake.…”

“…Effects of E on mood not only depend on dose but also on the psychophysiologic state of the subject and the context in which drinking occur^.^^ 15. 20, 25 We must therefore be cautious in interpreting mood effects in our experimental setting. Decreased friendliness resulting from E has been reported in experiments with the POMS.2.…”

The acute interaction of zimelidine (Z) with ethanol (E) was examined in six healthy men aged 20 to 37 yr who randomly received each of four treatments 1 wk apart: Z, 200 mg by mouth, preceded by 1 hr and followed for 7 hr of oral E in juice dosed to maintain blood alcohol concentrations between 800 and 1000 mg/l; placebo Z and E; Z and juice; and placebo Z and juice. E decreased the rate of biotransformation of Z to norzimelidine (NZ) by 46%, but the AUCs of Z, NZ, and their total concentration over 8 hr were not altered by E. Acetaldehyde concentrations did not change and no aversive alcohol-sensitizing reaction was detected. E-induced impairments in memory, body sway, and a manual tracking task were further enhanced by Z, as was the E-induced decrease in friendliness. Data suggest Z and E interact kinetically and dynamically and suggest a mechanism whereby Z may decrease E intake in man.

“…The effect of moderate alcohol consumption on mood may depend on several interacting factors, including the rise or decline of blood alcohol concentration (BAC) [4] – [6] , the pre-drinking mood state of the drinker [7] and factors such as the social context of drinking [8] , [9] , and expectancy of mood effects [10] , [11] .…”

The Biphasic Effects of Moderate Alcohol Consumption with a Meal on Ambiance-Induced Mood and Autonomic Nervous System Balance: A Randomized Crossover Trial

et al. 2014

BackgroundThe pre-drinking mood state has been indicated to be an important factor in the mood effects of alcohol. However, for moderate alcohol consumption there are no controlled studies showing this association. Also, the mood effects of consuming alcohol combined with food are largely unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of moderate alcohol combined with a meal on ambiance-induced mood states. Furthermore effects on autonomic nervous system activity were measured to explore physiological mechanisms that may be involved in changes of mood state.MethodsIn a crossover design 28 women (age 18–45 y, BMI 18.5–27 kg/m2) were randomly allocated to 4 conditions in which they received 3 glasses of sparkling white wine (30 g alcohol) or alcohol-free sparkling white wine while having dinner in a room with either a pleasant or unpleasant created ambiance. Subjects filled out questionnaires (B-BAES, POMS and postprandial wellness questionnaire) at different times. Skin conductance and heart rate variability were measured continuously.ResultsModerate alcohol consumption increased happiness scores in the unpleasant, but not in the pleasant ambiance. Alcohol consumption increased happiness and stimulation feelings within 1 hour and increased sedative feelings and sleepiness for 2.5 hour. Skin conductance was increased after alcohol within 1 hour and was related to happiness and stimulation scores. Heart rate variability was decreased after alcohol for 2 hours and was related to mental alertness.ConclusionMood inductions and autonomic nervous system parameters may be useful to evaluate mood changes by nutritional interventions. Moderate alcohol consumption elevates happiness scores in an unpleasant ambiance. However, drinking alcohol during a pleasant mood results in an equally positive mood state.Trial RegistrationClinicaltrials.gov NCT01426022.
