In this controlled family study the frequency of psychiatric disorder in children of alcoholic parents was found to be higher than in children of nonalcoholic parents. The rate in children of two alcoholic parents was distinctly higher than in those of one alcoholic parent. Comparison was also made between children of antisocial parents (usually coexisting with alcoholism) and children of parents with alcoholism only; no significant differences in the rates of childhood disorder were found between these two groups. Structured diagnostic interviews independently administered to both parents and children between 6 and 17 years old were used to assess psychopathology in the children. The types of disorders in the children of alcoholic parents reflected a mixed diagnostic picture with the reports of both parents and children yielding similar results.
在这项对照家庭研究中，发现酗酒父母的子女患精神疾病的频率高于非酗酒父母的子女。双亲酗酒的子女的患病率明显高于单亲酗酒的子女。研究还比较了反社会父母（通常与酗酒并存）的子女和仅父母酗酒的子女；这两组儿童期疾病的患病率没有显著差异。对6至17岁的父母和子女分别独立进行结构化诊断访谈，以评估儿童的精神病理学状况。酗酒父母的子女所患疾病类型呈现出混合诊断情况，父母和子女的报告结果相似。
