TY - JOUR PY - 1985// TI - Association of alcoholism with antisocial personality in urban men JO - Journal of nervous and mental disease A1 - Lewis, C. E. A1 - Robins, L. A1 - Rice, J. SP - 166 EP - 174 VL - 173 IS - 3 N2 - The association of alcoholism with antisocial personality is important from a research and a therapeutic standpoint. In a sample of urban black men, it was found that those with antisocial personality had a higher rate of alcoholism than those without. In addition, a family history of problem drinking, low educational level, and excessive irritability were also closely associated with alcoholism. The clinical, genetic, and neurophysiological implications of these findings are discussed.
