The P3 component of the event-related potential (ERP) was recorded during a Go/No-Go task from 42 alcoholic subjects, abstinent for 11-63 days, and 66 normal adult volunteers. In two different tasks, ERPs were elicited by visually presented words which provided explicit response instructions to Go (PUSH) or No-Go (WAIT). In the Noise Task, half of both Go and No-Go stimuli were degraded with ampersands (&P&U&S&H&, &W&A&I&T&). In the Probability Task, the probability of the Go stimulus was 25% and No-Go 75% on one run and the proportion reversed on another run. For both tasks, the amplitude of alcoholics' P3 was smaller than that of controls to the Go but not to the No-Go stimulus. There was a similar, but less pronounced trend for P3 latency to be delayed in alcoholic subjects for the Go, but not No-Go stimuli for the Noise Task. The P3 changes in alcoholics are consistent with those seen in several disease states which produce cognitive impairment.
