Loss of control and craving are reviewed and relevant experimental findings are discussed. Speed of drinking is proposed as a behavioral measure of craving and an experiment is described to test the hypothesis that craving is primed by a moderate dose of alcohol (45 gm). The hypothesis was confirmed, but only for the severely dependent alcoholics [human]. The behavioral measure of craving and the assessment of severity of dependence were apparently crucial. Failure to measure either would have resulted in failure to identify a priming effect.
