Comments on the relationship between locus of control and alcohol abuse.

Studies that report conflicting relationships between alcohol abuse and locus of control were reviewed. Possible explanations for the results were presented, as were data that indicate that locus of control may be related to age and to social desirability, but not to alcohol abuse. It was suggested that in the absence of a clear theoretical rationale for relating locus of control to alcohol abuse, the contradictory findings are not surprising.

The effects of videotaped modeling and self-confrontation on the drinking behavior of alcoholics.

Alcoholics were exposed to behavior counseling alone (N =10), or behavior counseling with either videotape self-confrontation (N = 10) or role-modeling (N = 10), and compared to alcoholics receiving standard inpatient treatment (N =10). Immediate alternation of drinking topographies and posttreatment follow-up drinking dispositions served as dependent variables. Subjects receiving videotape self-confrontation achieved greater positive changes in posttreatment drinking analysis sessions than did other treatment groups. Follow-up probes suggested superiority of the experimental treatments in general, and particularly videotape self-confrontation. Performance in the posttreatment analysis sessions was predictive of follow-up drinking status (p less thann .05).
