The results revealed that 19~44 year old, unmarried women - who had graduated high school were high as high-risk drinking. Moreover, smoking, depression and stress were many.
Finally, multiple logistic analysis showed that age, marital status, education level, smoking and obesity were significantly related to high-risk drinking.
