ENGLISH : Aims. To assess the prevalence of alcohol use disorders in Shiraz, Iran. Setting and Participants. A household survey of a nationally representative sample of 1400 subjects (aged 15 years or older). Measurements. The researchers administered a semistructured interview by a questionnaire and a structured interview based on DSM-IV Criteria for alcohol dependence and alcohol abuse. Findings. Of the participants, 373 (26.6%) admitted the use of alcohol once or more during their lives (39.6% of men and 13.7% of women); 159 (11.4%) were occasional alcohol abusers (17.3% of men and 5.4% of women); and 102 (7.3%) were alcohol dependent (11.9% of men and 2.7% of women). Use of alcohol was significantly related to gender. There was nonsignificant difference between single and married alcohol users. The most common reasons given for initial alcohol use were curiosity, modelling, and seeking pleasure and for current regular use were: seeking pleasure, release of tension, and need to avoid withdrawal symptoms. There were significant differences between occupations and alcohol use and also between level of education and alcohol use. (Review' s abstract) |
