Abstract
Synopsis Three hundred and six male subjects in a community survey reported on their ‘motivation for drinking’. Factor analysis revealed three major factors. Factor 1 relates to N (neuroticism) score, more extreme drinking, and likelihood of drink-related trouble. Factor 2 is associated with more privileged and factor 3 with less privileged class status.Keywords
