424 men diagnosed as alcoholic who entered a Navy Alcohol Rehabilitation Center (ARC) for treatment during FY 1973 were studied to determine any personality changes measured by the MMPI and Comrey Personality Scales during treatment for alcoholism. Trust, emotional stability, and extroversion increased during treatment. Anxiety, depression, somatic complaints, and impulsivity decreased. Eighty percent of the men received good to excellent reports from work after release from treatment. Overall, the results indicate a positive process in the treatment of alcoholism in an ocupational setting.
