Prevalence of Childhood Physical Abuse in Adult Male Veteran Alcoholics.
Schaefer, Melodie R.; And Others
Child Abuse and Neglect: The International Journal, v12 n2 p141-49 1988
The study of 100 adult male alcoholics found that about one-third reported they had been physically abused as children. Abused alcoholics reported having more severe psychological symptoms and distress than nonabused counterparts, though they did not differ in the onset, severity, or treatment history for alcohol dependency.
