Abstract
Of 6000 alcoholics who were administered the Iowa Alcoholic Stages Index from 1972-1974, 1426 were administered the Index more than once by different counselors, the interval between tests ranging from a few hours to over 2 yr. Twenty were administered the Index twice on the same day by different counselors. There was a high correlation between the test the retest results, the correlations decreasing with time when the interval was less than 1 day than when the interval was over 396 days.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
