Abstract:
This study investigated MacAndrew Scale score differences of four groups of females. Psychiatric outpatients, first-time D.U.I. offenders, alcoholics, and a group of normal controls were used in the study. An analysis of variance, Newmun-Keuls', and Dunnett's test for significance found five of the six comparisons significant. The alcoholic females scored significantly higher than all groups; psychiatries scored significantly lower than all of the groups; and the D.U.I. and normal (control) group means were not significantly different. Limitations and suggestions for future research were also presented.
