목적: 이 연구의 목적은 한국의 일부 대학생을 대상으로 성별에 따라 음주 이유와 문제음주 관련요인의 차이가 있는지를 파악하기 위한 것이다. 방법: 연구 대상자는 472명의 한국 대학생이며 사용한 측정도구는 Reasons for Drinking Questionnaire(RFDQ), Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test(AUDIT)이다. 결과: 남자 대학생의 평균 AUDIT 점수는 9.6(${\pm}5.4$), 여자 대학생은 6.4(${\pm}4.7$)이었으며 AUDIT 점수와 음주 이유에는 상관관계가 있었다. 남자 대학생의 AUDIT 점수 관련요인으로는 나이, 처음으로 흡연한 나이, 음주 이유가 사회적 관계를 위한 것이었다. 여자 대학생의 AUDIT 점수 관련요인은 종교, 처음으로 흡연한 나이, 음주 이유가 부정적인 감정 때문으로 서로 차이가 있었다. 결론: 대학생의 성별에 따라 음주 이유와 문제음주 관련요인이 다름을 확인하였고 따라서 성별에 따른 다른 접근법의 대학생 음주 예방 프로그램이 계획되어야 할 것이다.

This study investigates drinking attitudes and behaviors of university students. The sample included 355 students living in Busan, Korea. The questionnaire addressed general background information (gender, age, grade and monthly pocket money), drinking attitudes (understanding the effects of alcohol on the body, stereotype of drink, age at the first drink, the drinking companion at the first drink, reasons for starting to drink, main drinking companions, major reasons for drinking, the history of drinking alone, and reasons for drinking alone), drinking behaviors (the cost of each drinking occasion, drinking amounts, the frequency of drinking, the frequency of heavy drinking, the type of alcoholic beverage, and the places of drinking). A few respondents (both male and female students) started drinking while in high school (p<0.05), and most respondents drank with friends (males: 91.0%, female: 92.2%). The main reasons for drinking were the mood for male student (46.3%) and relationships for female student (49.1%) (p<0.05). Male respondents consumed more than seven glasses of soju (39.9%), whereas female respondents, five to seven glasses (49.7%) (p<0.05). On average, the respondents drank one to two times a week (males: 47.9%, females: 51.5%) and experienced heavy drinking one to three times every three months (males: 19.1%, females: 21.0%) (p<.05). The results suggest that students with frequent alcohol consumption and heavy alcohol dependence are likely to face problems and thus require aggressive intervention strategies that target them specifically.

Purpose: This study was conducted to identify the consumption of alcohol as well as to compare drinking refusal self-efficacy and mental health between an average drinking group and a problem drinking group of Korean nursing students. Methods: A questionnaire using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT) measuring drinking refusal self-efficacy and mental health was given to 938 students of two universities in Gyeongsangnam-do. Results: Among the respondents 381 (40.6%) were problem drinkers. The score of alcohol consumption in the AUDIT were 3.38 for the average group and 12.50 for the problem drinking group. There were significant differences between the average group and problem drinking group in age, living place, smoking, parent's drinking, age of the first drink and reasons for first drink. Participants of the average group had significantly higher drinking refusal self-efficacy than the problem drinking group. Regarding mental health, there were differences between the two groups in attempted suicide. The risk factors significantly associated with problem drinking were living place, smoking and reasons for the initial drink. Conclusion: These results provide guidance for developing strategies, such as an educational program, to promote safe alcohol consumption in nursing students.

This study was conducted to investigate the drinking status, drinking habit and dietary habit of high school students using anonymous questionnaires. DVS and skipped meal status were obtained by 24 hour recall method. Two hundreds ninety seven of 380 students (78.2%) have experienced the drinking even though 73.7% of them was not addictive. One hundred sixty one students (54.2%) initiated drinking in the middle school, mostly because of ‘peer pressure’ and ‘curiosity’. The most plausible reasons for drinking were ‘for mingling’ and ‘for stress reduction’, and they used to have desire for drinking mostly when felt ‘anger or frustration’ and ‘feel good’. Drinking behavior was significantly different in age of first smoking, drinking history, amount, reason for drinking and desire for drinking between male and female student. There was no significant difference in dietary habits between drinking students and non-drinking students. DVS, skipped meal status, snack preferences and food intake frequency also did not show the significant differences. However, considering that the drinking experience of high school students increased, and drinking experience of female students approached to that of male student, more attention needs to be given to juvenile drinking and its'prevention.

Objectives: This study aims to identify the drinking environment and drinking culture in an area with high drinking rates in order to provide the basis for the development of a drinking intervention program. Methods: Forty-six local experts and residents participated in focus group interviews that mainly asked questions about the drinking environment in the community, the culture and behavior of drinking, and the community efforts to reduce the drinking rates. The interviews of four groups were transcribed and analyzed. Results: Drinking environments and cultures were categorized into the following five themes: high physical accessibility to drinking, type of housing and long duration of stay in the same region, drinking-friendly culture and daily life events, various reasons and patterns of drinking, and lack of health (education) programs. Conclusions: Community efforts are required to make the residents aware of how the local environment is related to the high drinking rates in their community. Further, the study underlines the need for the community to make efforts to create an environment where drinking rates are low, and foster a diverse leisure culture.

There are many concerns about the use and abuse of both licit and illicit substances among adolescents. This study was performed to understand the drinking status and drinking behaviur of middle school students. Self reports on drinking behaviur, dietary habits and one-day dietary records were obtained from 213 boys and 202 girls using anonymous questionnaires. One hundred and forty five of 415 students(34.9%) have experienced drinking and 48.3% of them initiated it at primary school. The motivation for first drinking was different between boys and girls; ' after sacrificial rite' for boys, ' curiosity' for girls. The most plausible reasons for drinking were ' boredom' and ' stress reduction' , and they felt the strongest desire to drink when they felt ' anger or frustration' Drinking behavior was not significantly different between male and female student except in the motivation for first drinking. But interestingly, the girls drank with friends mostly, while the boys drank with their parents. Drinking-experienced students showed significantly high rates of skipping meals and in particular skipping breakfast. DVS was found as $14.71\pm{4.51}$ and $13.95\pm{4.69}$ in non-drinking and drinking, respectively. This study showed that the drinking experience of middle school students were initiated earlier in primary school, and that drinking behavior of female students was not different with that of male student.

This study focuses on high school students and aims not only to examine the relationships among problem drinking measures and drinking motives to cope but also to determine the factors to predict the negative consequences related to alcohol. 1,436 self-reported questionnaires were collected from seven big cities' high school students who had ever experienced drinking. The survey data identified the following results; first, there were statistically significant differences in drinking motives to cope and 4 measures of problem drinking depending on gender and the school type. It should be noted that more girls and more students in vocational schools had experienced drunkenness rather than boys and students in academic schools unlike alcohol consumption, binge drinking, and negative consequences related to alcohol. Second, the use of alcohol to cope may place individuals at greater risk for alcohol problems. Four dimensions of problem drinking are moderately correlated to drinking motives to cope. Third, the result from logistic regressions indicated that factors related to drinking (binge drinking, drunkenness, and drinking reasons to cope) rather than demographic factors would be contributed more to one more as well as two more negative consequences. Especially, drunkeness seems to be the best factor to predict negative consequences related to alcohol. Implications for developing prevention programs are suggested.
