The goal of the current study is to explore the relationship between performance on emotional and alcohol Stroop tasks and characteristics of alcohol dependence (i.e., the subjective perception of alcohol dependence symptoms, the duration of alcohol dependence, the predominant motivation for alcohol consumption, etc.). For the purpose of the study, we recruited patients (n=43) with alcohol dependence undergoing detoxification treatment. 72% of group sample (n=31) are male, the average age is 40.33±8.87 years (M±SD), and the average duration of alcohol dependence is 10.16±6.59 years, the average remission length is 6 months [0.00, 7.00] (Median [IQR]), and average maximum remission length is 6 months [0.15, 5.00]. The results of the study suggested a significant negative correlation between emotional and alcohol Stroop and hedonistic and addictive motivation for alcohol consumption (p<0.03). In addition, significant negative relationship were observed between alcohol Stroop interference index and the maximum duration of remission in the past (p<0.02). Finally, significant positive correlation was found between emotional Stroop and subjective perception of withdrawal symptoms (p<0.01). Theoretical and practical implications of the findings are discussed.
