Purpose : This study aimed to identify individual characteristics, health-related factors, and socialenvironmental factor related to Problem drinking during the COVID-19 period.
Methods : Data of 2,000 adults aged ≥19 years from the 2021 Daejeon Citizens' Health Survey were used, and multivariate logistic regression analyses were conducted to examine factors associated with Problem drinking during the COVID-19 period.
Results : Among individual characteristics, older age (50-64: OR=0.41; CI=0.22-0.77, ≥ 65: OR=0.18; CI=0.07-0.47), marital status (OR=2.12; CI=1.18-3.80), lowest income level (OR=2.59; CI=1.02-6.54), and economic activity status (OR=0.63; CI=0.42-0.96) were associated with Problem drinking during the COVID-19. Anxiety caused by COVID-19 (OR=1.09; CI=1.01-1.17) was the health-related effective factor related to Problem drinking. Moreover, meetings with family, friends, and acquaintances (OR=0.58; CI=0.40-0.84) were associated with Problem drinking.
