Objectives: Based on the degree of problematic drinking on the early twenties in college students, the study emphasizes the emotional and characteristic traits in anxiety, depression, self-esteem, impulsiveness and stress coping.
Methods: The survey has been conducted on 361 college students. It includes “The Korean version of Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test(AUDIT-K)”, “Beck Depression Inventory(BDI)”, “Beck Anxiety Inventory(BAI)”, “Barratt Impulsiveness Scale(BIS)”, “Self-Esteem Scale(SES)”, “Ways of Coping Checklist(WCCL)”, and “Checklist for Alcohol-induced Problems”. The sample has been classified into two, problematic drinking(AUDIT≥8) and non-problematic drinking (AUDIT＜8) groups. The characteristic difference has been analyzed through Chi-square test and t-test.
Results: The 60.4 percent of participants have problematic drinking. Male gender and extra-curriculum activities have been related to problematic drinking. Most of alcohol induced problems occur in the group of problematic drinking. The scores of BDI, BAI and BIS are high, and the SES score is low in problematic drinking group. Emotion-focused coping is mostly used for stress coping.
Conclusion: Emotional and mental problems caused by problematic drinking in the college students are issued from our study, and therefore, the education for the prevention of alcoholic abuse has come first.
