OKLAHOMA, OK — April 16, 2002 — A new study has found that young adult children-of-alcoholics (COAs) have a different emotional response to environmental cues than do individuals without a family history of alcoholism.

These findings, published in the April issue of Alcoholism: Clinical & Experimental Research, may demonstrate underlying differences in brain chemistry and physiology.
