摘要：

This article suggests two new techniques for identifying alcohol problems in a military setting. The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test is a well validated self-report procedure and requires approximately 2 minutes for administration, Measurement of carbohydrate-deficient transferrin provides a useful biochemical index of recent heavy alcohol consumption. Employment of these tests could improve selection of individuals seeking entry to the military, aid recognition of current personnel in need of treatment, and assist in evaluating progress of patients in treatment.
