Depressed, alcoholic men were divided into those with and those without antisocial personality (ASP). The ASP alcoholics had a more severe, cross-sectional clinical picture; they had a higher rate of drug use disorder and more alcohol-related symptomatology. The medical complications of alcoholism were related to the duration of heavy drinking whereas the nonmedical complications (the psychosocial and pathologic-intake problems) were related to ASP, duration of heavy drinking, and their interaction.
