Abstract
Alcoholics in a 6 wk inpatient program increased their consumption of coffee as time for discharge approached. Week-in-program was linearly related and significantly correlated with the amount of coffee consumed. Several alternate interpretations of this phenomenon and consideration of further research are discussed.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
