Compensation strategies in the linguistic behaviour of men addicted to alcohol

Urszula Ciszewska-Psujek Logo ORCID

Abstract

Alcohol dependence is a chronic disease that causes multi-system and multi-organ damage, including damage to the central nervous system. The toxic effects of alcohol on the brain tissue lead to the development of cognitive and language disorders. The author’s study of language behavior in a group of 15 alcohol-dependent men undergoing alcohol addiction therapy and maintaining abstinence has made it possible to define linguistic strategies to compensate for the disintegration process and to determine the spectrum of language disorders in alcoholism.
