Alcoholic patients were randomly assigned to a supplementary treatment program involving individualized imagery of drinking situations which were then either associated with painful electric shock or with sham shock. This was in addition to a general treatment program for alcoholism including relaxation training. On a long-term follow-up, no differences were demonstrable between the treatment groups. However, patients who did better had originally scored higher on the 16 PF Personality Test in terms of being more calm, self-reliant, placid and disciplined. This was independent of the treatment group to which they had been assigned. This study provides no evidence for the efficacy of electric aversion therapy under the conditions that they were used.
酗酒患者被随机分配到一个辅助治疗项目中，该项目包括对饮酒场景进行个性化的想象，然后将这些场景与痛苦的电击或假电击联系起来。这是除了包括放松训练在内的一般酒精成瘾治疗项目之外的。在长期随访中，各治疗组之间没有明显差异。然而，表现较好的患者最初在16种人格因素问卷（16PF）人格测试中得分较高，表现为更冷静、自立、平和且自律。这与他们被分配到的治疗组无关。本研究没有提供证据证明在所使用的条件下电厌恶疗法的有效性。
