16名经常醉酒的罪犯同意在监督下服用液体形式的双硫仑，作为缓刑令的条件。他们知道，不服药，以及不遵守任何其他缓刑条件，可能导致他们被送回法院。三人违约，但其余人中只有两人进一步犯罪。九是圆满成功。在研究结束时，整个小组的平均禁欲期为30周，而前两年为6周。9人冒着饮酒的风险，但没有人遭受任何严重后果或副作用。对这些罪犯来说，这种技术可能是一种司法上可以接受的、更有希望的替代监狱的办法。
Sixteen habitual drunken offenders agreed to take disulfiram in liquid form under supervision as a condition of a probation order. They knew that failure to take medication, as with failure to observe any other condition of probation, could result in their being returned to court. Three defaulted but only two of the remainder committed further offences. Nine were entirely successful. At the end of the study the average period of abstinence for the whole group was 30 weeks compared with six weeks during the previous two years. Nine risked drinking alcohol but none suffered any serious consequences or side effects. This technique may be a judicially acceptable and more hopeful alternative to prison for these offenders.
