The risk of alcohol dependence in relatives of probands compared with controls is increased about 2-fold. The aggregation of antisocial personality disorder, drug dependence, anxiety disorders, and mood disorders suggests common mechanisms for these disorders and alcohol dependence within some families. These data suggest new phenotypes for molecular genetic studies and alternative strategies for studying the heterogeneity of alcohol dependence.
