Abstract:
:1. The authors examined the effect of acute alcohol consumption on a set of visual tasks: visual short term memory, depth perception, and attention. 2. In a repeated measurement design, thirteen subjects performed the tasks once sober and once intoxicated with 0.8 g/kg body weight pure ethanol in orange juice (33% alcohol). Subjects underwent a neuropsychological (Benton test) and a psychophysical test (vernier discrimination) both assessing visual short term memory, the test d2 as a measure of attention and concentration, and a psychophysical depth perception task. 3. Subjects demonstrated significant alcohol-related impairments in depth perception and in visual short term memory as assessed by the vernier discrimination task. However, the neuropsychological Benton test and test d2 failed to reveal alcohol-related changes in performance-probably due to superimposed learning effects. Performance was neither correlated with blood alcohol levels (BAL) nor perceived intoxication. Even though the current BAL was known to the subjects, only half of them demonstrated a close correlation between BAL and perceived intoxication.
