Analyses of the prevalence and incidence of withdrawal symptoms in the general population can provide an estimate of the frequency of alcohol dependence in the population. Similar analyses in people who are being treated for alcoholism or alcohol-related problems can identify the need for and specific types of treatment required for these populations. Three national surveys found that the prevalence of withdrawal symptoms was relatively low in the general population and has remained stable over the past 15 years. The likelihood of experiencing withdrawal symptoms increased with increasing alcohol consumption. No differences in the prevalence of withdrawal symptoms existed among ethnic groups in the general population. In a sample of patients undergoing alcoholism treatment, the prevalence of withdrawal symptoms generally was high, with lower rates among blacks than among whites and Hispanics. The prevalence of withdrawal symptoms in people undergoing treatment after being convicted of driving under the influence fell between that of the general population and that of the treatment sample.
对普通人群中戒断症状的患病率和发病率进行分析，可以估计该人群中酒精依赖的频率。对正在接受酒精中毒或酒精相关问题治疗的人群进行类似分析，可以确定这些人群对治疗的需求以及所需的具体治疗类型。三项全国性调查发现，普通人群中戒断症状的患病率相对较低，且在过去15年中一直保持稳定。出现戒断症状的可能性随着酒精消费量的增加而增加。普通人群中不同种族之间戒断症状的患病率没有差异。在接受酒精中毒治疗的患者样本中，戒断症状的患病率普遍较高，黑人中的患病率低于白人和西班牙裔。因酒后驾车被定罪后接受治疗的人群中戒断症状的患病率介于普通人群和治疗样本之间。
