To evaluate aggressiveness in individuals receiving treatment for alcohol and crack cocaine use, both alone and in combination with one another, in order to compare them to control subjects with no history of drug problems, using the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory. The sample consisted of 67 men aged 18-65years, divided into four groups: alcohol (=13); crack cocaine (=25); crack cocaine + alcohol (=16) and controls (=13). Participants completed the following instruments: socioeconomic questionnaire, the Wechsler Abbreviated Scale of Intelligence and the State-Trait Anger Expression Inventory. Individuals with alcohol dependence alone, or comorbid with crack cocaine dependence, showed elevated levels of aggression and anger, though these varied according to the drug of abuse. Concurrent users of alcohol and crack cocaine had the highest levels of aggression, followed by isolated alcohol users, suggesting an association between alcohol consumption and aggression. The present findings suggest that alcohol and aggression levels may be associated with violent behavior. Concurrent use of alcohol and crack cocaine was related to higher levels of aggression, which may be associated with more severe alterations in behavior and impulse control.
为了评估单独使用酒精和强效可卡因进行治疗以及两者联合使用时个体的攻击性，并将其与无药物问题史的对照受试者进行比较，使用状态-特质愤怒表达量表。样本包括67名年龄在18至65岁之间的男性，分为四组：酒精组（=13人）；强效可卡因组（=25人）；强效可卡因+酒精组（=16人）和对照组（=13人）。参与者完成了以下工具：社会经济问卷、韦氏简式智力量表和状态-特质愤怒表达量表。单独患有酒精依赖或合并强效可卡因依赖的个体表现出较高的攻击性和愤怒水平，尽管这些水平因滥用药物而异。酒精和强效可卡因的同时使用者攻击性水平最高，其次是单独使用酒精的人，这表明饮酒与攻击性之间存在关联。目前的研究结果表明，酒精和攻击性水平可能与暴力行为有关。酒精和强效可卡因的同时使用与更高的攻击性水平有关，这可能与行为和冲动控制方面更严重的改变有关。
