Abstract

Physiological parameters were obtained before and after alcohol drinking with subjective drunkenness, mood scores and task performances from nineteen male graduate students. Blood was sampled to measure Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) every 30 minute after drinking and Breath Alcohol Content (BrAC) was also measured. Heart rate increase and HF component of heart rate variability decrease were observed as shown in the responses induced by mental stress. However, a different pattern was shown in Tissue Blood Flow comparing with the responses induced by mental stress and physical stimulus. A reaction tine in a multiple task environment increased after drinking while a simple reaction time was not affected by drinking.
