Goldman, Mark S.; And Others – Journal of Consulting and Clinical Psychology, 1983
Studied neuropsychological recovery following alcohol abuse as a function of age. Alcoholics (N=31) were administered a repeatable neuropsychological test battery for the three months immediately following cessation of drinking. Results suggest that beyond age 40, humans increase in vulnerability to the toxic effects of alcohol. (JAC)
