Addresses problems found in Hesselbrock and associates' (1983) research on assessment of depression in alcoholics. Discusses several problems, including failure to accurately identify depression and lack of an alcohol-use status measure during assessment. A reply from Hesselbrock and associates clarifies methodology used and responds to the criticisms. (BH)
