title: [Evaluation of psychomotor performance of professionally active alcoholics].
abstract: The subjects were 100 alcohol addicted persons and 117 non-addicted (according to CAGE criteria). The sociodemographic characterization of each person was done. The parameters of psychomotor performance were estimated: the simple reaction time task, the simple performance test, the tapping test and a visual-motoric coordination. The following conclusions were established: 1) the alcohol addiction makes the psychomotoric performance worse, 2) the CAGE test is proposed to be included as a routine method to qualify for a job demanding high psychomotor performance, 3) the persons suspected of alcohol addiction should be sent to the specialist +psychotechnical examinations, 4) the building trade workers are the high risk group for alcohol addiction.
