Abstract

In the context of a prospective study of alcohol-dependent men, who were committed to compulsory treatment after violations of the law, all patients of a treatment unit in Rheinland/Pfalz during the years 1988-90 were studied. Sociodemographic data, results of psychological testing and records of therapeutic progress of 76 men are evaluated. Besides the evidence of severe social deficits, particular attention is paid to the negative effect of marked delinquency and the additional abuse of drugs and medicaments upon therapeutic outcome.
