abstract="Using experimental and psychological techniques (Koos' cubes, Luria's methods) 200 patients with the second stage of chronic alcoholism have been examined. The function of constructive performance was found to be impaired. The central defect of the constructive performance of the representative group was an impaired ability to space the elements of the construction. All errors of the examined patients were due to the defect of optico-spatial perception which is suggestive of impaired functions of the parietooccipital portions of the brain. In confirmation of the above conclusion the authors present the results of neuropsychological examination of 95 patients in the state of abstinence and after it has been eliminated.<p /><p>Language: ru</p>",
