Notizen: Data from an early study of alcoholism among half-siblings of alcoholic probands (17) was reanalyzed using log-linear analysis. The original study, which used chi-square analysis, identified genetic factors but found no environmental effects that contributed to the prediction of alcoholism. Log-linear analysis, however, reveals that being reared with a proband is associated with a reduced incidence of alcoholism in half-siblings. The results do not disconfirm the presence of genetic factors, but they do indicate that family dynamics make an independent and statistically significant contribution to the development of alcoholism not heretofore demonstrated. Similarities between these results and the results from studies of identical twins are discussed.

Notizen: Abstract Existing computer-based decision aids in the areas of psychiatric diagnosis and consultation are reviewed, and the prospects for expert system development within the mental health field are discussed. Emphasis is placed upon the decision-making models used in these systems rather than on their particular application area. The decision-making paradigms discussed are (1) data bank analysis, (2) statistical pattern recognition, (3) Bayesian analysis, (4) logical flow chart method, and (5) knowledge-based (expert system) approaches. For each paradigm, its essential features, its strengths and weaknesses, and some example applications are presented.
