Summary In a group of 39 alcoholics within a withdrawal process, the psychical situation was rated using AMP scales (Angst et al. 1969). Cluster analysis of the items rendered the following five-cluster solution: (1) “aggressive-depressive” patients, (2) “less impaired” persons, (3) “slowed persons with diminished contact”, (4) “emotionally inadequate” persons, (5) “appealing depressive” persons. These results are discussed with respect to other data from clinical history and diagnostic findings.
