Participants who meet the criteria for Alcohol Use Disorder will complete six weeks of smartphone monitoring. During this monitoring period, they will also complete two three-consecutive days of intensive monitoring including more frequent smartphone surveys, saliva samples, heart rate monitoring, and an alcohol use monitor.

Participants who have a past year history of alcohol use and do not meet the criteria for Alcohol Use Disorder will complete two weeks of smartphone monitoring. During this monitoring period, they will also complete three consecutive days of intensive monitoring including more frequent smartphone surveys, saliva samples, heart rate monitoring, and an alcohol use monitor.

During intake, a research assistant will demonstrate how to place the HRV monitor, BACtrak Skyn, and provide instructions on completing the saliva samples at home. Participants will wear the HRV and Skyn monitors for three consecutive, randomly selected days twice for individuals with Alcohol Use Disorder and once for social drinkers during the study (72 hours each). Participants will be provided with six saliva sample collection tubes per day with explicit directions on when the saliva sampling should occur (hours since waking: +0, +1, +2, +4, +6, +10 hours, and before going to sleep). Participants will also complete a subjective report using similar questions included in the survey prompts at the same scheduled time as the saliva sample. Individuals with Alcohol Use Disorder would complete a total of 6 such days during the study, and social drinkers would complete a total of 3 such days during the study.

Participants will report using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) their current levels of craving, if they have drank alcohol, and if they experienced a stressor. These reports will be generated in three different ways: at 8 am and 8 pm at night, at four random times during waking hours, and while drinking alcohol. Individuals with AUD will be compared to social drinkers in their differences in real-world ratings of stress and craving. Craving and stress will be assessed using a 100-point visual analog scale (VAS) in which 0="Not at all" and 100="Extremely High."

Participants will report using ecological momentary assessment (EMA) their current levels of stress, if they have drank alcohol, and if they experienced a stressor. These reports will be generated in three different ways: at 8 am and 8 pm at night, at four random times during waking hours, and during marijuana use. Individuals with AUD will be compared to social drinkers in their differences in real-world ratings of stress and craving. Craving and stress will be assessed using a 100-point visual analog scale (VAS) in which 0="Not at all" and 100="Extremely High."

Heart Rate Variability (HRV) will be collected throughout the day on two (individuals with AUD) or one set (social drinkers) of three-day occasions during intake week and during week 6 of the study.

Saliva samples for cortisol levels will be collected throughout the day on two (individuals with AUD) or one set (social drinkers) of three-day occasions during intake week and during week 6 of the study.
