Despite an unfortunately small sample size, a readily understandable questionnaire was administered with relative ease to available American merchant seamen who met the necessary study criteria of sobriety and treatment. The findings suggest that problem-drinking patterns of active merchant seamen seem to be induced by their work environment rather than being indicative of a predisposition to periodic or episodic alcoholism. Possible reasons why relatively few seamen seek or remain in treatment programs designed to help them with their drinking problems are presented.
尽管样本量小得令人遗憾，但还是相对轻松地对符合清醒和治疗必要研究标准的美国商船船员进行了一份易于理解的问卷调查。研究结果表明，在职商船船员的酗酒模式似乎是由其工作环境诱发的，而非表明其有周期性或发作性酗酒的倾向。文中还阐述了相对较少的海员寻求或继续参与旨在帮助他们解决饮酒问题的治疗项目的可能原因。
