Abstract
The Interpersonal Perception Technique has been applied to two groups of married couples; one a group of 22 male alcoholic patients and their wives, and the other a non-psychiatric sample of 26 married couples similar to the patients in occupational status and social class. The results indicate that the patients are not markedly inferior to the controls on the measures of mutual marital insight which the technique makes available.Keywords
