The present experiment tested whether moderate alcohol intoxication influences the relative strength of different psychoanalytic defense mechanisms and whether the overall level of defense activity is changed. Thirty-six women were randomly assigned to either an alcohol, a placebo, or a control group. The alcohol dose was 1.0 ml of 100% alcohol/kg body weight. Subjects were tested with the Defense Mechanism Test (DMT), which gives a valid measure of both elaborate or late and primitive or early defense mechanisms. Results indicated no significant effects of alcohol intoxication on any aspect of the defense system. This was taken as supportive of the psychoanalytic notion in respect of the stability of the defense system. Possible complications were discussed.
本实验旨在测试中度酒精中毒是否会影响不同精神分析防御机制的相对强度,以及防御活动的总体水平是否会发生变化。36名女性被随机分为酒精组、安慰剂组或对照组。酒精剂量为每公斤体重1.0毫升100%酒精。受试者接受了防御机制测试(DMT),该测试能有效测量复杂或晚期以及原始或早期的防御机制。结果表明,酒精中毒对防御系统的任何方面均无显著影响。这被视为支持了精神分析学中关于防御系统稳定性的观点。文中还讨论了可能出现的并发症。
