Stability of Psychological Test Results in Newly Admitted Alcoholics.

Sherer, Mark; And Others

Journal of Clinical Psychology, v40 n3 p855-57 May 1984

Attempted to replicate previous research which demonstrated that psychological test results of newly admitted alcoholics are not stable due to lingering alcohol toxicity. The present study (N=40) demonstrated that a 10-day delay in testing is sufficient to obtain stable results on some psychological tests. (Author/JAC)
