Male alcoholics (N = 85) were followed for 6 months after inpatient treatment for alcohol dependence. Latency to relapse was predicted by two related persistence measures (the RD2 Persistence scale and the Orderliness/Persistence factor scale of the Tridimensional Personality Questionnaire, TPQ) as well as by job status at the time of admission to treatment, a history of vagrancy or public intoxication, amount of prior substance abuse treatment and the number of criteria met for a diagnosis of Antisocial Personality Disorder. Persistence predicted relapse latency even when the other predictors were used as covariates, supporting the hypothesis that normal-range personality variables may enhance the prediction of clinical outcome. Further, the relations between TPQ scales and antisocial behavior as well as the severity of alcohol dependence were examined.
85名男性酗酒者在接受酒精依赖住院治疗后被随访了6个月。复发潜伏期由两项相关的坚持性测量指标（RD2坚持性量表和三维人格问卷（TPQ）的有序性/坚持性因子量表）以及治疗入院时的工作状态、流浪或公众醉酒史、既往药物滥用治疗量和符合反社会人格障碍诊断标准的数量来预测。即使将其他预测指标用作协变量，坚持性仍能预测复发潜伏期，这支持了正常范围人格变量可能增强临床结果预测的假设。此外，还研究了TPQ量表与反社会行为以及酒精依赖严重程度之间的关系。
