A sample of 275 subjects (general hospital staff, general practitioners and alcoholic patients) was investigated regarding their perception of problem-drinkers. A set of semantic differential scales was used, and subjects were asked to evaluate the concepts of "problem drinker," "self" and "ideal self." Psychological distance was measured in terms of bipolar personality constructs between each of the above concepts. Significant differences were found between the groups in terms of concept evaluation and psychological distance. The implications of these findings for both research and treatment are discussed.
对275名受试者（综合医院工作人员、全科医生和酗酒患者）进行了调查，了解他们对问题饮酒者的看法。使用了一组语义差异量表，要求受试者对“问题饮酒者”“自我”和“理想自我”的概念进行评价。根据上述每个概念之间的双极人格结构来测量心理距离。在概念评价和心理距离方面，各群体之间存在显著差异。讨论了这些发现对研究和治疗的意义。
