Abstract
Purpose:
This study aimed to investigate differences in drinking scores according to stress and depression. Methods: A secondary analysis of the 5th and 6th Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Surveys was conducted. Complex sampling design data analysis was performed in order to identify differences in Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT) scores according to stress and depression among 1,732 unmarried women. Results: The average AUDIT score was 6.14 in unmarried women. There were significant differences in AUDIT scores in terms of stress and depression. Conclusion: Practical programs that can prevent alcohol drinking for unmarried women are suggested. Programs for alcohol-related problems should include stress and depression management.
