Neuropsychological and Computerized Tomographic Evaluations of Young Alcoholics

Abstract
Summary: The purpose of the study was to evaluate whether the mood of an alcoholic contributed to the impairment on intellectual tests. The Marke-Nyman Temperament Scale and the Beck Depression Inventory were administered to 37 male alcoholics. It was found that there were no significant differences in personality or mood between intellectually impaired and intellectually intact subjects.
