The aim of the present study was to investigate the P300 amplitude as a possible
vulnerability marker in children of alcoholic (COA) fathers with and without paternal …

Past reports suggest that reduced P300 amplitude is associated with risk for alcoholism. We
examined whether visual P300 amplitude could identify familial risk for alcohol disorders in …

The sons of alcoholics have repeatedly been found to have reduced P300 amplitude.
Further, quantitative behavioral genetic and molecular genetic studies indicating a genetic …

Background: A substantial amount of evidence exists suggesting that P300 amplitude in
childhood is a risk marker for later development of alcohol dependence. There is evidence …

A total of 70 age-and gender-matched children and their relatives who were from families
that were either at high or low risk for developing alcoholism were studied and the children …

Background: Reduction of P300 amplitude in children and adolescents at high risk for
developing alcoholism has frequently been reported. It has been hypothesized that this …

Background: The P300 component of the event-related potential has been extensively
studied as a possible neurobiological risk marker for the development of alcoholism …

Recent studies on biological markers and risk factors for alcoholism have distinguished
between nonalcoholic individuals with a family history of alcoholism and those without such …

First degree relatives of alcoholics show significantly reduced P300 amplitudes. This
phenomenon is thought to be a vulnerability marker of alcoholism. Relatives of alcoholics …

The possibility that the P300 component of the event-related potential (ERP) may have
etiological significance for alcoholism has been discussed for over a decade now …
