EPPS scores of male alcoholics: a review and cross-validation

Mean EPPS scores for 20 male alcoholics at an outpatient clinic were found to be significantly higher than scores of Edwards' General Adult Sample of men on Heterosexuality, but significantly lower on Deference, Order, Affiliation, and Endurance. These differences are consistent with most prior research, but inconsistent with the earliest published study. Further research with the EPPS on alcoholic populations is encouraged.
