Enhancing Prospective Thinking in Early Recovery (BEAM)

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the prosocial effects of personally-relevant, high-intensity episodic future-thinking (EFT) cues in alcohol use disorder persons and related brain mechanisms. The main question\[s\] this trial aims to answer are: * Will high-intensity EFT cues will produce greater delayed reward preference than low-intensity cues? * Will high-intensity EFT cues effect greater treatment-seeking interest? * Will high-intensity EFT cues elicit greater response in regions for prospective thinking during delay discounting (vs. low-intensity) * Will nucleus accumbens-precuneus resting connectivity correlate with behavioral SS? * Will the novel behavioral SS decision-making task activate the nucleus accumbens? Researchers will compare the experimental (high-intensity group) and control (low-intensity) groups to see if there are differences in the results for the questions outlined above.
