Abstract:
Contrary to expectations based on past research, 28 female addicts (all false negatives on MacAndrew Alcoholism Scale) did not significantly differ from 18 nonaddicted female psychiatric patients (true negatives on MacAndrew Scale) with respect to the proportion of elevated Repression Scale scores (T scores greater than 60).
