Scientists from the University Lester developed a method for diagnosing alcoholism in humans. To do this, you only need to ask them two questions.
This was reported by URA-Inform with reference to Charter97.
They noted that this approach allows you to identify alcohol addiction at an early stage, when external signs and antisocial behavior in a person have not yet manifested.
In particular, the first question is: “How often do you drink six or more servings of alcohol at one time?” The second : “Have you ever drunk alcohol in the morning to calm your nerves?”
According to a study by scientists, the accuracy of this method is 87%. In order for the test to show a person's addiction, the respondent must answer “often” or ” regularly” to the first question, which indicates problems with alcohol consumption. A positive answer to the second question also indicates the presence of alcohol addiction.
Also interesting will be the information that scientists surprised with the answer: is water effective against a hangover .
