Longitudinal relations between marital aggression and alcohol problems
Psychology of Addictive Behaviors. Vol 23(1), Mar 2009, 2-13.

Results suggest that problem drinking may prevent couples from adequately handling marital disagreements, and that marital problems may lead to drinking as a form of coping with stress; couples in which the husband engages in greater problem drinking than the wife may be at increased risk.
