The difference between alcoholics and their healthy equivalent pairs - psychological approach

The effects of long-term alcohol abuse on intellectual functions were studied on 30 alcoholics in phases of reduced tolerance to alcohol and 30 equivalent-pair healthy subjects. The results showed statistically significant differences in performance between the alcoholics and control subjects for all test variables. Predicted group membership (alcoholics - non-alcoholics) reaches 90% on the basis of applied test procedures. Some evidence of a stronger non-verbal impairment in alcoholics were found
