Drug and alcohol dependence - 1 Nov 1998

van den Bree M B, Johnson E O, Neale M C, Pickens R W

Abstract excerpt

Twins were recruited through alcohol and drug treatment programs. With structural equation modeling, genetic and environmental estimates were obtained for use and DSM-III abuse/dependence of sedatives, opioids, cocaine, stimulants, and cannabis as well as any illicit drug. Analyses were conducted...
