"Alcoholism and Anxiety: Animal Models. Animal models for the study of alcoholism hasbeen developed during the last years. These models contribute in revealing the mechanismsinvolved in this pathology. A synthesis of the main models used with rodents is presentedalong with studies that show the complex links between anxiety and alcoholism. Theresults indicate that alcohol acts as anxiolytic during early stages of consumption and asan anxiogenic agent when absent after chronic or acute doses, that the forced administrationof ethanol provokes anxiolytic effects, and that the application of stressors alters the voluntaryconsumption of alcohol. There are few experiments that tested the relationship betweenalcoholism and frustration, a state considered equal to physical pain and to learned fear.The first results on the later subject obtained by the authors are described."
