본 연구는 대학생들의 음주습관이 문제음주와 문제행동을 발생시키고, 문제음주에 대한 우울과의 관련성 여부를 파악하고자 함에 있다. 이를 위해, 2011년 12월12일부터 2011년 12월 23일까지 충청남도에 소재한 전문대학의 재학 중인 학생을 대상으로 무작위 표집을 하였다. 연구도구는 문헌고찰과 선행연구를 토대로 재구성한 설문지로 질문지 조사법을 이용하여 자료를 수집하였고 회수된 설문지는 총 262부였다. 조사결과, 대학생들의 음주습관에 대해 알아보기 위하여 빈도분석을 실시한 결과, 먼저 음주 후 술버릇 여부에 있어서는 38.2%가 술버릇이 있는 것으로 나타났다. 또한, 대학생의 음주습관에 따라 우울 수준에 차이가 있는지를 분석한 결과, 먼저 술버릇 여부에 따라서는 술버릇이 있는 경우가 술버릇이 없는 경우에 비해 상대적으로 우울 수준이 높은 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 대학생의 음주습관이 문제음주와 우울로 이어지는 관련성에 대해 알아보고 음주습관의 개선을 위한 방향을 제시하였다. 본 연구를 통해 구체적인 음주문제예방전략과 프로그램에 대한 국가의 정책적 지원을 기대해 본다.
