The purpose of this study is to assess the relationships of alcohol consumption patterns to mental distress and self-rated health. Data of 19,856 adult drinkers over 19 years of age and older from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey were evaluated by multivariate logistic regression analysis. Risks of experiencing perceived high stress, depressive symptoms and suicidal thoughts were higher in alcohol use disorder group in male, whereas the risks were higher in both alcohol use disorder and hazardous drinking groups in female, reflecting higher susceptibility to mental distress. In both male and female, former drinkers presented poor self-rated health compared with low-risk drinkers, although no difference was found in the prevalence of mental distress. Specialized mental health management measures for female drinkers are required, and former drinkers are suggested to be assessed separately from never or low-risk drinkers for their physical and mental health status.

개인건강에 대한 관심이 날로 증대함에 따라 개인 건강 상태를 파악하기 위한 사용자 생활패턴인지 연구에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 행위 인지 연구는 오랜 시간 진행되어 왔지만 고수준행위인지의 정확도가 여전히 미미하며 고수준행위의 세부 행위는 인지하지 않았다. 본 논문에서는 스마트폰과 웨어러블센서를 이용하여 실생활에서 보다 정확한 고수준행위데이터를 도출함으로써 더욱 넓은 분야에서 활용 가능한 기술 연구에 목적이 있다.
