Abstract
Alcoholics who experienced withdrawal seizures performed comparably to those who did not surfer seizures on intellectual and neuropsychological tests. Both groups, however, exhibited a number of impairments. The hypothesis that the withdrawal seizure is indicative of alcoholism severity and can serve as a marker for extent of neurological disturbance was not supported.Keywords
