To investigate this possibility, this dataset was collected as part of a National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) grant titled "Aberrant Reward Sensitivity: Mechanisms Underlying Substance Use" (R03-DA046733). The overarching goal was to characterize the associations between neural responses to social and nonsocial rewards, trait re
