Murphy H B M [Department of Psychiatry, McGill University, Montreal, Canada], Negrete J C and Tousignant M. Exploring a new type of alcoholism survey. International Journal of Epidemiology 1979, 8: 119-126. A new type of method for surveying alcoholism and alcohol-abuse was tested in a way designed to cover about 20%of adults in a town of 50 000. The method proved able to identify types of alcohol-abuser which other survey techniques have difficulty with; it made no undue demands on respondents; and it is much more economical than conventional household surveys. However, more work is still needed on it, and for certain types of information the customary self-report is still going to be required.
