Abstract
PDF - Background
This study aimed to identify trends in domestic research and conduct a meta-analysis of studies investigating the effects of non-pharmacological interventions targeting domestic problem drinkers. The objectives were to synthesize and analyze the results of these studies, while evaluating potential bias and estimating effect size.
Methods
Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines, we searched five domestic databases (RISS, KISS, DBpia, KoreaMed, and Science ON) for journals and theses published until July 2022. Researchers independently assessed study quality using Cochrane RoB 2 or ROBINS-I.
Results
Of the 307 studies extracted, 12 were included in systematic review. The meta-analysis included 11 studies on problem drinking and 8 on alcohol abstinence self-efficacy. Random effects models were used for analysis, given the heterogeneity among the studies. Non-pharmacological interventions effectively reduced problem drinking (g=−1.22, 95% CI: −1.69 to −0.75, p＜.001) and enhanced alcohol abstinence self-efficacy (g=1.16, 95% CI: 0.54 to 1.79, p＜.001).
Conclusions
Non-pharmacological intervention programs targeting problem drinkers effectively reduced problem drinking and enhanced alcohol abstinence self-efficacy. This study provides valuable evidence for developing and implementing such programs for problem drinkers.

Abstract

- Background
This study investigated the mediating effect of anger rumination in the relationship between job stress and problem drinking among community-oriented police officers.
Methods
The study participants were 107 community-oriented police officers working in local police stations and substations in the Seoul-Gyeonggi area. Participants completed the Police Job Stress Scale, Anger Rumination Scale (K-ARS), and Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test (AUDIT). Data was collected from September to October 2022, and the mediation analysis was performed using SPSS PROCESS Macro model 4.
Results
Analysis showed that anger rumination fully mediates the relationship between job stress and problem drinking among community-oriented police officers.
Conclusions
This study emphasizes the importance of interventions or treatments that address both job stress and anger rumination for community-oriented police officers with alcohol-related problems. Such interventions can contribute to preventing and managing problem drinking that threatens the well-being of individual police officers and the police organization.

Abstract
PDF
- Background
This study examined how the perceived stress of college students leads to drinking problems based on the Escape Theory.
Methods
A total of 485 college students were surveyed. A moderated mediation analysis was used to test the hypotheses.
Results
Since no significant correlation was found between perceived stress and drinking problem, the dependent variable was replaced with problematic drinking, a sub-factor of drinking problem. Escape from self fully mediated the relationship between perceived stress and problematic drinking. The interaction of perceived stress and dysfunctional self-focus was correlated with escape from self. Coping motives to drinking strengthened the pathways from escape from self to problematic drinking.
Conclusions
This study shows the need for therapeutic interventions to curb college students’ drinking problems. This study’s significance and limitations are also discussed.

Background: The stress and coping of college students are reported to be closely related to gambling and drinking problems. Therefore, in this study was to examine the perceived stress, coping, gambling and drinking problem of college students, and to identify the correlations between variables and factors affecting gambling and drinking problems.
Methods: The subjects were 220 college students in Northern Gyeonggi area and data was collected using self-reported questionnaires and analyzed using SPSS WIN 21.0 program.
Results: 15.5% of college students group showed high risk of gambling. Among the male group, 50% of male showed normal drinking level, but 45.7% of male indicated dangerous drinking level, and rest 4.3% showed the alcoholic disorder. While the female group showed somewhat different result with the male group. Among them, 73.4% of female showed normal drinking, but 20% of female showed dangerous drinking problems and 6.3% of female had the alcoholic disorder problem. The common factors influencing college students’ gambling and drinking problems were high due to passive stress coping ways.
Conclusions: College students’ gambling and drinking problems are closely related to stress coping. Therefore, it was found that the stress management program of college students is essential for the prevention and management of gambling problems and drinking problems of college students.

Background: This study was performed to identify the mediating effect of alcohol expectancy and moderating effect of coping response on the relation between university students’ stress and drinking problem.
Methods: Data collected from 264 university students’ self-report questionnaire, including life daily stress, alcohol expectancy, coping response, drinking problem were analyzed.
Results: The mediating effect of alcohol expectancy was significant (β=.26, p<.001). Although, the moderating effect of approach coping response was not significant, the moderating effect of avoidance coping response was significant (β=.12, p<.01).
Conclusions: These results suggest that treatment and intervention for drinking problems of university students’ must pay attention on alcohol expectancy and try to decrease the preference of avoidance coping response.
