Intensity of Daily Drinking and Its Relation to Alcohol Use Disorders

Abstract: Daily drinkers represent a highly heterogeneous group, and the correlates of daily drinking depend on the usual quantity of daily drinks and the frequency of alcohol-related problems in a given sample. Moreover, AUD, defined both according to DSM-IV and DSM-5, did not capture more than 68% of daily binge drinkers. Given that daily binge drinking is an extremely high threshold for use, this finding may present a challenge for our current classification system.

“…Relatedly, dissociation of tolerance from other aspects of dependence is well established in the tobacco literature (Perkins, 2002). Third, tolerance is not a strong marker of severity or dependence after controlling for heavy consumption (Martin et al, 2008; Vergés et al, 2018). Fourth and finally, tolerance does not substantially increment withdrawal in terms of defining physiological dependence (Schuckit et al, 1998).…”

“…The issue surrounding the diagnostic importance of tolerance is more complex. We recently reported (Vergés et al, 2018) that there was virtually no association between self-reported alcohol sensitivity and other symptoms of alcohol dependence after controlling for the heaviness of consumption patterns among daily drinkers. We speculate that tolerance is an intermediate phenotype that puts one at risk for addiction by virtue of the fact that it facilitates high-level exposures but is not part of addiction itself.…”
