title: [Social adaptation of patients with bipolar disorder in relation to the problems of alcoholism (pilot studies)].
abstract: 89 patients (52 women and 37 men) with bipolar affective disorder was separated on two groups: with alcohol problems (n = 30) and without alcohol problems (n = 59). Both groups were tested using Scale of Adaptation and Activity of Puzyński (SAA III). The bipolar affective illness discriminates patient's social functioning (especially married life and emotional relation to the closest relatives). The bipolar patients with alcohol problems did show worse social adaptation than the other group; it concerns mainly masculine patients.
