Abstract excerpt

Consistent maximum-likelihood heritability estimates of consumption of alcoholic beverages were observed at three separate times during a 14- to 18-year period in adult twin males initially aged 42-56 years in 1969-1973. Log transformation of the average number of drinks/week of the returnees to all three examinations was examined relative to potential covariates representing both antecedents of drinking alcohol...
