Abstract

An association between alcohol use and violent behaviour has commonly been reported in the literature, both in the context of alcohol use at the time of the violent act (Wolfgang et al., 1956; McLintock, 1963) and in the context of the alcohol habit of men convicted of violent offences (Gibbens and Silberman, 1970). Similarly a high incidence of severe alcohol addiction has been found in men appearing before courts (Gath, 1969) and in prisons (Hensman, 1969).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
