title: Early recollections of alcoholic women.
abstract: Early recollections of 27 alcoholic women were significantly different from those of 30 control subjects. Recollections of alcoholics suggested more disturbed relationships with family and nonfamily members, more references to incidents that elicited fear, anxiety, and other negative affects, and little acceptance of responsibility for what happens in their memories. Utilizations of these results must be viewed cautiously until further investigation with larger and varied samples provides additional supporting evidence.
