alcoholic personality
Definition
- Alcoholism as a label has little specificity. Alcohol abuse and dependence are more specific, behaviorally defined constructs with criteria based on the level of alcohol involvement and the impact of alcohol use on judgment, risk-taking behavior, physical and mental health, and social and occupational functioning.
