  abstract: physicians all work with alcohol users on a regular basis. Several studies have addressed the attitudes that these professionals have toward working with patients having alcohol-related problems and the professionals' opinions about alcoholism. These studies are usually about one or another of these professional groups or include other health care workers. This study was conducted to compare the responses of psychiatrists, psychologists, and general practice physicians (GPs) about the attitudes that they have toward working with patients who have alcohol-related problems and the opinions that these three groups of professionals have about alcoholism. The sample for this study consisted of 32psychiatrists: 55 Ph.D. level psychologists, and 49 general practice medical doctors. The findings from this study include: overall, the psychiatrists, psychologists, and general practice physicians in this study, had more positive than negative opinions about alcoholism and more positive than negative attitudes toward working with problem drinkers; b) there were differences between the three groups regard to their opinions about alcoholism and their attitudes toward working with alcoholics;general practice physicians this study reported more negative opinions about alcoholism than both tie psychiatrists and psychologists; d) the general practice physicians in this study reported more negative attitudes toward working with problem-drinkers than both the psychiatrists and psychologists; e) for this sample psychiatrists, psychologists, and general practice physicians, neither gender, ethnicity, or personal and/or familial experience with alcoholism had any effect on their opinions or attitudes as the groups were homogeneous in terms of these variables; and f) years of professional experience and years of education/training specific to alcoholism appear to be related to the attitudes and opinions held by the professionals in this study.
