Abstract

In a program for problem drinker-drivers, relationships were examined among 14 psychological and physical reasons for drinking. The two sets of ratings were separately factor analyzed. The factors were corroborated by correlating them between factor sets and with external variables: MMPI subscales, Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test, record of DWI convictions, and dropping out of the program. Results indicated that reasons for drinking form patterns related to psychological adjustment.
