Perceived Intoxication: Implications for Alcohol Education.
Nicholson, Mary E.; And Others
Journal of Alcohol and Drug Education, v40 n1 p115-25 Fall 1994
This study examined the relationships among perceived levels of intoxication, blood alcohol levels, and impairment of selected psychomotor skills used in driving. Results reinforced previous findings which correlated perceptions of intoxication and other measures. These findings suggest that alcohol consumption tables, which calculate one's impairment, are both invalid and dangerous. (RJM)
