To find scholarly articles regarding alcohol abuse among the elderly, please visit the Library's databases at http://libguides.limestone.edu/content.php?pid=360472&sid=2947555 .  Here you will find many research databases.  Select the letter "P" and scroll down to Psychology and Behavioral Sciences and select the link.  Once inside this database be sure to limit your search to "Full-Text" and "Peer Reviewed" if needed.  We suggest the following search terms:

substance abuse among the elderly

alcohol abuse and elderly

elderly drug abuse

alcohol and aging-alcohol

Another great resource would be SocINDEX with Full Text (back on the All Databases page - select the letter "S").

The Library also has many guides to assist you at http://libguides.limestone.edu/content.php?pid=262351&sid=2165725.
