  1. "…alcoholic societies may show some preoccupations in the oral mode" (62)McClelland, David C. - A cross-cultural study of folk-tale content and drinking, 1972 - 2 Variables

    This book chapter tests new and pre-existing theories (Horton, Field, Bacon et al.) for the cause of variation in drinking across cultures. Folktale content is used to test psychological variables more directly than has been done previously. Folktale content is analyzed programmatically with an acknowledged error level of up to one-third. Results lend support to Field's 1962 theory that loose social organization facilitates drinking.

  8. The extent of problem score (i.e. problems caused by alcoholism) will be associated with general consumption level, frequency of integrated drinking, approval of drunkenness, and approval of drinking (61).Whitehead, Paul C. - Explaining alcoholism: an empirical test and reformation, 1974 - 5 Variables

    This article examines a hypothesis that associates alcoholism with the structure and quality of social norms related to drinking. Analysis yields little support for this hypothesis, but the amount of alcohol consumed by members of the society emerges as an important predictive variable. A new theory of alcoholism that takes this variable into account is discussed.
