The main approaches to studying the genetics of alcoholism have been twin and adoption studies. Twin studies have demonstrated differences between monozygotic and dizygotic twin pairs in regard to alcohol use, but tend to be contradictory with regard to alcoholism. Most adoption studies suggest a genetic predisposition to alcoholism in some individuals.
研究酒精中毒遗传学的主要方法是双胞胎研究和收养研究。双胞胎研究已经证明了同卵双胞胎和异卵双胞胎在饮酒方面存在差异，但在酒精中毒方面往往相互矛盾。大多数收养研究表明，某些个体存在酒精中毒的遗传易感性。
