Abstract

Ninety-two patients with alcoholism were interviewed on various aspects of alcohol use. Factor analysis of the data revealed five factors: withdrawal symptoms; help seeking behaviour; pathological drinking; legal difficulties; family problems. The analysis suggested the possibility of heterogenity in this clinical sampling with alcoholism.
