Abstract
Tested four groups (N = 491) of male general hospital Ss with the AVLT to determine differences between alcoholic Ss and depressed Ss (measured by MMPI D). Those both depressed and alcoholic and those neither completed the four groups. Alcoholism lowers initial repetition, recall, and recognition scores; depression lowers only the first of these. Depth of depression is only suggestive as a variable. Beyond trial one depression does not affect AVLT performance, whereas alcoholism is more pervasive.
