Abstract
|
|
|
Objectives: This study aimed to examine the effects of alcohol factors (age of drinking onset, problem drinking), family factors (family history of alcoholism, childhood abusive experiences), and mental health factors (depression, stress) on the spouses of alcoholics.
Methods: Data from a community alcohol counseling center were used for the analysis. Subjects of this study were 225. The analysis of the collected data included frequencies, t-test, stepwise regression.
Results: First, the low-income group exhibited more spouse abuse. Second, childhood abusive experiences, depression, and family history of alcoholism were significantly related to the abuse of spouses of alcoholics..
]
Conclusion: Family and mental health factors are predictive risk factors for spouses of alcoholics. Family-focused interventions can reduce the influence of these risk factors. These findings support the importance of alcoholic couple intervention programs.
