ABSTRACT
Common determinants of alcoholism and substance sniffing are identified among the Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians of Oklahoma. Computer correlations, interviews, and questionnaires provided data. Findings indicate chronic sniffing is prealcoholic behavior. Confusing family interpersonal relationships, alcoholism in the immediate family, and severe parent-child emotional deprivation predispose to alcoholism.
