N2  - Forty-one Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) items that differentiated modal female alcoholics from modal nonsubstance-abusing psychiatric outpatients at the p less than .0001 level of significance were located. A principal factor analysis of the 41 X 41 item-intercorrelation matrix yielded three factors which were labeled (1) Deviant Thrill-Seeking, (2) Remorseful Intrapunitiveness and (3) Blackouts. Nonmodal alcoholics, who comprised approximately 20% of the present sample, were found to be indistinguishable from modal psychiatric outpatients except for their excessive consumption of alcohol.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
