Investigated a newly developed MMPI scale--the Institutionalized Chronic Alcohol Scale (ICAS)--designed to separate alcoholics from neurotics. With a sample of 75 alcoholic and 50 neurotic male Veterans Administration Hospital inpatients, the ICAS was found to separate the two groups, correctly identifying 78%, but was slightly less effective than two other previously used alcoholism scales by MacAndrew (Amac) and Holmes (Am). Data from 30 male Veterans Administration Hospital heroin addicts lend some support to the statement, which appears in the original article, that the ICAS should not be used to distinguish between alcoholics and people other than neurotics.
研究了一种新开发的明尼苏达多相人格量表（MMPI）——制度化慢性酒精量表（ICAS），该量表旨在区分酗酒者和神经症患者。以75名酗酒男性和50名神经症男性退伍军人管理局医院住院患者为样本，发现ICAS能够区分这两组人群，正确识别率为78%，但效果略逊于MacAndrew（Amac）和Holmes（Am）之前使用的另外两种酒精中毒量表。来自30名退伍军人管理局医院男性海洛因成瘾者的数据，为原始文章中关于ICAS不应被用于区分酗酒者和除神经症患者之外的其他人的说法提供了一些支持。
