“…Our study sample consisted primarily of male DWI offenders. Because of the higher prevalence of depressed affect associated with women and with female alcoholics (e.g., Schuckit & Morissey, 1976; Turnbull & Gomberg; 1988; Weissman & Myers, 1980), the strength of associations between problem drinking and depressive symptomatology may be even stronger for female alcoholics, female DWI offenders, and members of the general population. These are issues to be investigated in future research studies.…”

Women more often than men report that depressive symptoms accompany their drinking problems and that depression preceded the onset of their alcohol problems (Beck et al, 1982; Brennan, Moos, & Kim, 1993; Hatsukami & Pickens, 1982; Schuckit, 1986; Winokur & Clayton, 1968).…”
