Objective：The purpose of this study was to investigate the difference between alcoholic patients and normal controls on ego identity, depression, anxiety. Methods：We compared 72 alcoholic patients who were admitted to Gongju National Mental Hospital and Daejeon Hanmaum Hospital with 74 controls. All subjects are assessed by Dignan’s ego identity scale and Zung’s self rating anxiety scale and Depression scale and only controls are assessed by CAGE. Results：Results were as follows 1) In comparisons with controls, alcohol dependent patients showed significant lower scores in the total scores of Dignan’s ego identity scale and the items of stability, interpersonal relationship, self acceptance, self assertion, and sense of self. 2) Alcohol dependent patients had significant higher scores in Zung’s self rating Anxiety scale and Zung’s self rating Depression scale than controls 3) Ego identity had negative correlations with anxiety and depression. Anxiety had positive correlations with depression. 4) In alcohol dependent patients, ego identity did not developed to age and stagnated. Conclusion：As described in about study results, alcohol dependent patients had lower ego identity and unstable self-concept and sense of self. Therefore, while psychosocial treatments of alcohol dependent patients have been practiced, intervention about both ego identity and depression and anxiety is needed to improve treatment outcome of such patients.
