In 1983, ALCLASTYR is asked of sample persons ages 18 and older who have had twelve drinks in any year of their life, and in 1988 of sample persons ages 18 and older who have had twelve or more drinks in their entire life and had less than twelve drinks in the past twelve months.

This question is part of the 1983 and 1988 alcohol use supplement. Please use drop down menus for related variables.
