Abstract

Alcohol has been associated with violent crimes and domestic violence across many nations. Various etiological factors were linked to chronic alcohol use and violence including psychiatric comorbidities of perpetrators such as personality disorders, mood disorders, and intermittent explosive disorders. Aggression is the precursor of violence and individuals prone to aggressive behaviors are more likely to commit impulsive violent crimes, especially under the influence of alcohol. Findings from brain studies indicate long-term alcohol consumption induced morphological changes in brain regions involved in self-control, decision-making, and emotional processing. In line with this, the inherent dopaminergic and serotonergic anomalies seen in aggressive individuals increase their susceptibility to commit violent crimes when alcohol present in their system. In relation to this, this article intends to investigate the influence of alcohol on aggression with sociopsychological and neuroscientific perspectives by looking into comorbidity of personality or mood disorders, state of the mind during alcohol consumption, types of beverages, environmental trigger, neurochemical changes, and gender differences that influence individual responses to alcohol intake and susceptibility to intoxicated aggression.

  • Alcohol intoxication is more important than a static history of alcohol use.

    “Second, the findings contrast with substantial evidence for alcohol being a strong predictor of physical violence and it is likely that alcohol intoxication is more important than a static history of alcohol use (Duke et al., 2018; Sontate et al., 2021).”

    From Police-Identified Psychological Distress, Substance Use, and Physical Violence Among Male Intimate Partner Stalkers (2025) · cites this paper as Sontate et al., 2021

    The 'Alcohol, Aggression, and Crime' section (page unavailable) links intoxication during an offense to violent offending, and 'A Conundrum' discusses factors affecting whether an intoxicated person becomes violent. The paper does not compare intoxication with a static history of alcohol use as predictors, so it does not establish that intoxication is more important. (LLM, conf=0.83)

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.
