Abstract

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to explore the subjective experiences of problem drinkers participating in the early intervention program for moderate alcohol drinking. Methods : A qualitative descriptive study design was used. Data were collected through individual interviews with thirteen problem drinkers and analyzed using qualitative content analysis. Results : The experiences of the problem drinkers participating in the early intervention program were derived from four themes and nine sub-themes in terms of awareness, alcohol expectancies, perceived self-efficacy and behavioral change. They participated in programs offered in the workplace, and there were differences in motivation level among individuals, but generally accepted the necessity of the program. Participants who had trust with the program provider were more likely to change drinking behavior. Conclusion : Problem drinkers who participated in the early intervention program showed that it is a useful approach to change the problem drinking behavior by promoting awareness of alcohol-related knowledge, motivation for change through acquiring enough information and acquisition of self-efficacy as a behavior skill. These findings can be used as basic information for implementing and adapting early intervention for prevention of alcoholism in primary health care setting including workplace.

연구목적: 이 연구는 문제음주자 관점에서 조기개입 프로그램의 효과를 조명함으로써 탐색적 이해를 보여주는데 있다. 연구방법: 이 연구는 질적 기술 연구 설계가 사용되었다. 프로그램에 참여한 13명의 문제음주자와 개별 면담을 통해 연구자료를 수집하였으며, 질적 내용 분석으로 분석하였다. 연구결과: 조기개입 프로그램에 참여한 문제음주자는 알코올 정보, 알코올의 효과에 대한 기대, 자기효능감과 행동 변화 측면에서 4개의 주제 및 9개의 하위주제가 도출되었다. 이들은 직장 내에서 운영된 조기개입 프로그램에 참여하였기 때문에 개인별로 동기 수준에 차이가 있었으나, 프로그램의 필요성은 대체로 수용하였다. 프로그램 진행자를 신뢰하는 참여자일수록 음주행동 변화를 긍정적으로 생각하였다. 결론: 조기개입 프로그램에 참여한 문제음주자는 충분한 정보를 습득함으로써 음주 폐해에 대한 인식과 변화 동기의 증진 및 행위기술인 자기효능감의 획득을 통하여 문제음주 행동 변화에 유용한 접근임을 보여주었다. 이러한 결과는 직장 등 다양한 일차건강관리 현장에서 알코올중독 예방을 위한 조기개입을 적용하기 위한 기초자료로 활용될 수 있을 것이다.
