Article Abstract

Objective: Prior research has emphasized psychological resilience as a potential protective factor against alcohol use disorder in diverse populations, with limited exploration of its relationship in the general population. This study investigated the association between the lifetime and one-year prevalence of alcohol use disorder and resilience.

Methods: Data obtained from the National Mental Health Survey of Korea 2021 (5,511 participants; 40.7% response rate) encompassed information on alcohol use disorders, resilience, experiences of psychological trauma, and major mental disorders. The analyses compared demographics, psychological trauma, resilience, and the prevalence of major mental disorders based on alcoholism. The contribution of resilience to alcoholism was assessed utilizing Rao-Scott logistic regression, with adjustments made for confounding variables.

Results: Individuals with both lifetime and 1-year alcohol use disorder and dependence exhibited significantly lower levels of resilience on the Connor-Davidson Resilience Scale. Diminished resilience predicted morbidity and persisted even after adjusting for depressive and anxiety disorders, psychological trauma, nicotine use disorders, age, gender, education, income, marital status, and occupation.

Conclusion: Diminished resilience is a prognostic indicator of increased likelihood of both lifetime and current alcoholism in the general population.

Introduction: Studies suggest that serotonin (5-HT) plays an important role in alcohol use disorder (AUD). While several receptor subtypes modulate the role of 5-HT in AUD, evidence suggests that 5-HT and 5-HT receptors may be directly involved in alcohol drinking due to their interaction with the mesolimbic dopaminergic system. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of 5-HT and 5-HT antagonists, alone or in combination, on the acquisition and expression (i.

Background: A well-established link between antisocial behavior (ASB) and problematic alcohol use in adolescence has been demonstrated, yet the direction of this association across the lifespan remains unclear. Although antisocial conduct may increase exposure to known social and environmental risk factors for developing alcohol use disorder (AUD), alcohol use may also impair social functioning and self-regulation that subsequently increases ASB risk. Using a sibling comparison design in a high-risk sample, this study tested bidirectional associations between symptom counts of ASB and AUD from adolescence through adulthood.

Background: Impulsivity is a multidimensional construct that is associated with problematic alcohol use and alcohol use disorder (AUD). Modeling within-person clustering of impulsivity facets has the potential to aid clinical case conceptualization, and examining associations with resilience and well-being outcomes can inform strength-based intervention approaches. In this study, we utilized latent profile analysis (LPA) to capture the clustering of trait impulsivity facets and tested resilience as a mediational pathway linking impulsivity latent profiles to problematic alcohol use and quality of life domains.

Background: Alcohol use disorder (AUD) is a pervasive problem in society afflicting millions of people worldwide. One reason for the prevalence of AUD is that heavy alcohol drinking can produce alcohol dependence. In addition, alcohol dependence dysregulates the body's stress systems to increase alcohol drinking.
