The description of Frank's beliefs about the effects of alcohol on his behavior suggests that he is discussing the expectancy effect - the idea that people's beliefs and expectations about alcohol's effects can influence their behavior and experiences while drinking. The other options (anorgasmia effect, restraint effect, and short-term pharmacological effect) are not relevant to the scenario presented.
