  1. STAGES OF QUESTIONS • Is it Genetic? • What’s Inherited? • What Are the Genes? • How Does Environment Contribute?

  2. THE IMPORTANCE OF GENETICS IS SUPPORTED BY: • Family • Twin • Adoption

  3. GENETIC INFLUENCES OPERATE IN: Choice to Drink Level of Response Reinforcement Consequences DEPENDENCE

  4. COMPLEXITIES • Environment • Heterogeneity • Polygenic

  5. VARIANCE OF RISK (Heterogeneous and Polygenic)

  6. POSSIBLE FAMILIES OF RISK FACTORS • Level of Response (LR) • P3 / Disinhibition / ASPD / Type 2 / B • Independent Axis II Disorders • Opioids • Alcohol Metabolizing Enzymes

  7. LOW LEVEL OF RESPONSE TO ALCOHOL (LR) 1. Less Alcohol Related Change on a Challenge. 2. The Need for a Relatively High Number of Drinks for an Effect.

  13. SEARCH FOR GENES FOR LR • Association • Linkage • Animal Models
