abstract="In 3 major alcoholic hospitals (Gyor, Eger and Szeged) treating the characteristic group of population in three - the western, northern and south-eastern -regions of Hungary in the mild eighties our study surveying the social deviations of 570 patients carried out a complex data collection which included a questionaire examining their socializational and social conditions. As well as alcoholics, there were also those with suicide attempt background, neurotics, criminals and also a pattern representing the whole population, included in the paper. In the survey pattern each third female patient had a suicide background; with males it occured in one half of the cases. The sex proportion of the psychiatric hospitalisation background in similar, 18% and 9%. The criminal background is of a high rate: 87% (!) of the women and 78 of the men examined are recidival patients in this sense. The possibility of a suicide background in our alcoholist patient pattern is in correlation with the values found in the variables below: marital status, age at first marriage, type of habitation, region of the country, a possible fall in rank in occupation, owning a care or not, a criminal background. However, the suicidal behavior does not significantly depend on the dimension surveyed and evaluated below: whether the patient is a recidival one regarding alcoholical hospitalization, ex-servicemanship, age, the number of children born alive, belonging to social strata, the number of changes in places of residence, the physical or mental nature of occupational activity or retirement, education, opinion about parents, the possible repetition of schoolterms.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
