tailieunhanh - The Addiction-Prone Personality

This book investigates whether or not there is a causal link between personality traits and the development of alcohol abuse. Findings suggest that there is such a link: people who are inclined toward sensation-seeking are likely to consume more alcohol, and those who show high levels of psychotic and/or antisocial behavior are more inclined to have alcohol problems. The authors successfully develop and validate a measure of the Addiction-Prone Personality. | The Addiction-Prone Personality LONGITUDINAL RESEARCH IN THE SOCIAL AND BEHAVIORAL SCIENCES An Interdisciplinary Series Series Editors Howard B.
