["Simple-minded" personality variant among chronic alcoholic patients].
The author describes a frequently encountered variant of alcoholic patients' personality with non-psychopathic premorbid features (phlegmatic kind-heartedness, faultlessness, cordiality, conscientiousness, vulnerability). The "pivot" of these features is "simple-mindedness". The peculiarities of alcoholism hypnotic states ("obliterated" somnambulism) and treatment in these patients according to their individual protective-psychological mechanisms are shown. The clinical material covers 1315 cases.
