  • Title: Recovery of verbal short-term memory in alcoholics.
    Author: Cermak LS, Ryback RS.
    Journal: J Stud Alcohol; 1976 Jan; 37(1):46-52. PubMed ID: 2813.
    Abstract:
    When given a short-term memory distractor test on the day after admission to the hospital in an intoxicated state, the performance of older alcoholic patients was significantly worse than that of younger alcoholics and on a par with that of alcoholic Korsakoff patients. One month later, however, the older patients' performance was comparable to that of the other alcoholics.
