As many as 20 alcoholic patients and 20 healthy men were subjected to a free associative experiment with the stimuli-words such as "wife", "chief", "shop", while the word "pencil" was used as neutral control. In the patients, the words "chief" and "wife", in particular, evoked highly predominant emotional associations due to the negative characteristics of the chief and positive ones of the wife, her general human qualities and attitude toward her husband. The latter association was compensatory in nature, reflecting the importance of the wife theme for alcoholic patients. As compared to the healthy persons, the degree of transformation of the meanings of the stimuli-words in the patients can serve as an indicator of the importance of the meanings "wife", "chief", "shop" and "pencil" (zero transformation). The data obtained indicate that the psychosomatic approach makes it possible to rearrange the semantic structure of the patients transformed personality, to reveal its so-called "hot points" which may require psychocorrection.
对多达20名酗酒患者和20名健康男性进行了一项自由联想实验，使用了“妻子”“上司”“商店”等刺激词，同时使用“铅笔”作为中性对照词。在患者中，特别是“上司”和“妻子”这两个词，由于上司的负面特征以及妻子的正面特征、她的一般人性品质和对丈夫的态度，引发了高度占主导地位的情感联想。后一种联想本质上是补偿性的，反映了妻子主题对酗酒患者的重要性。与健康人相比，患者中刺激词意义的转变程度可以作为“妻子”“上司”“商店”和“铅笔”（零转变）这些意义重要性的指标。所获得的数据表明，身心方法能够重新安排患者变形人格的语义结构，揭示其可能需要心理矫正的所谓“热点”。
