Youths' Perceptions of Alcoholism.
Lorch, Barbara (Day); Hughes, Robert H.
Journal of Alcohol and Drug Education, v31 n3 p54-63 Spr 1986
Only a third of students in this study accepted the medical model of alcoholism. Those who had the least knowledge of, and experience with, alcohol were the most likely to consider alcoholism as an illness. The source of information on drugs most conducive to acceptance of the medical model was parents. (Author/ABB)
