Alcohol related problems among university students and adolescents differ from those of chronic alcoholics. Despite the increasing need for assessing alcohol related problems among university students and adolescents, there is a dearth of research on sensitive and reliable measures in Korea. The Rutgers Alcohol Problem Index (RAPI) is an internationally popular measure of alcohol-related problems among university students and adolescents. The current study translated the RAPI and validated the Korean version of the RAPI(K-RAPI). Six hundred and forty-seven university students in Korea completed a packet of self-report questionnaires, including K-RAPI and measures on alcohol related problems and related psychological symptoms. We administered confirmatory factor analysis on K-RAPI with 21 items. Results indicated that unifactor model of K-RAPI fits the sample of Korean university students well. K-RAPI also showed good reliability and validity. These results suggest that K-RAPI is a useful measure in the research and interventions for alcohol related problems among Korean university students and adolescents.
