Alcohol consumption increases sensitivity to expressions of disgust and contempt, leading to a greater risk of alcohol-related aggression. Recent research demonstrates that while alcohol enhances the positivity of personality perception, it does not improve the accuracy of social impressions. A study with 720 participants showed that individuals under the influence of alcohol were seen as more sociable, yet these impressions did not align with their true personalities. This indicates that alcohol does not unveil the authentic self as previously believed.
Alcohol consumption increases sensitivity to expressions of disgust and contempt, heightening the risk of alcohol-related aggression due to this heightened emotional perception.
Alcohol enhances the positivity of personality expression but does not improve accuracy, challenging the idea that alcohol reveals one's true self.
