Influence of Depression and Alcoholism on Learning, Recall, and Recognition.
Query, William T.; Megran, Jim
Journal of Clinical Psychology, v40 n4 p1097-100 Jul 1984
Tested four groups (N=491) of male general hospital subjects with the Rey Auditory-Verbal Learning Test to determine differences between alcoholic and depressed subjects (measured by Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory). Results showed that alcoholism lowers initial repetition, recall, and recognition scores; depression lowers only the first of these. (Author/LLL)
