Abstract excerpt

AIMS: To investigate genetic and environmental influences on the development of specific alcohol dependence symptoms. DESIGN AND PARTICIPANTS: A classical twin study of 3372 male-male twin pairs in the Vietnam Era Twin (VET) Registry based on telephone interviews about alcohol use. MEASUREMENTS: The nine diagnostic symptoms according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorder, version III...
