Contents: Although research into alcohol expectancies is reasonably well established, there is scant empirical evidence to directly relate such expectancies to the treatment of problem drinking. Consistent evidence from alcohol expectancy studies indicates that problem drinkers hold clusters of strongly positive beliefs regarding alcohol, in particular perceiving their drinking as a way of coping with specific skills deficits. However the precise relationship between such beliefs and treatment has not yet been established, The research developments needed to more fully elucidate the role that alcohol expectancies play in the treatment of problem drinking are discussed. Quoique la recherche portant sur les attentes d'alcooliques est assez bien etablie, il ya peu de preuves empiriques qui relient ces attentes au traitement de l'alcoolisme. L'evidence provenant des etudes sur les attentes des alcooliques indique que les alcooliques adoptent des constellations de croyances fortement positives concernant l'alcool; en particulier, ils percoivent la boisson comme une methode de surmonter des deficits de fonctions specifiques. Cependant, la relation precise entre ces croyances et le traitement n'est pas encore completement etablie. Le developpement necessaire de recherches pour mieux eclaircir le role que jouent les attentes dans le traitement de l'alcoolisme est considere.
