Argument- The augment is that even when a sober alcoholic has even a small drink, they would have an over whelming craving for more alcohol and continue to drink after that. Therefore when a person becomes alcoholic they will forever have a craving to drink.
Claim- Craving is measured through three types of behaviors—self-reports of craving, drug-use behavior, and physiological responding. The most frequently used measure is self-report. This is where addicts are asked to rate or describe their level of craving for a drug.
Quote- “Jellinek contended that sober alcoholics who consumed a small amount of alcohol would experience overwhelming craving that would compel them to continue drinking.”
