The purpose of this study, SPSI-R(social problem solving inventory-revised) was validated to demonstrate it's discriminant validity. That is, alcoholics and normals investigated difference in two aspects of problem-orientation and problem-solving proper. MAST and SPSI-R were administered to 60 normal persons and 70 alcoholic patients. Alcoholic patients were selected according to the MAST score. The results were validated to demonstrate it's discriminant validity. That is, five subscale scores of SPSI-R were found to successfully separate alcoholics from normals. Specifically, alcoholics and normals significantly differed in two aspects of problem-orientation and problem-solving proper. The suggestions and the limitations of this study, and the directions of future study were discussed.
