Objectives: Drinking patterns are very much different in gender. This study was conducted in order to investigate whether alcohol expectancy, drinking refusal self-efficacy, family history on problem drinking, religion, and perceived health status have influenced on gender differences in problem drinking. Methods: The subjects of this study were 2,013 people(male 1,016, female 1,015). Data were collected using self-reported survey. Collected data were analyzed by frequency, t-test, and logistic regression. Results: The main findings from the gender differences are as follows. 1. Only women were likely to belong to a group of problem drinking when they have religion. 2. The onset of alcohol use was not significantly influenced to both genders. However, the average age of regular drinking was only significant for men. 3. Drinking refusal self-efficacy were highly significant variables for both gender. 4. According to alcohol expectancies, positive and negative expectancies were statistically significant for men, but only negative expectancies were significant for women. 5. Family history and perceived health status were only statistically significant variables for women. Conclusion: Based on these findings, results of the study imply the need for more attention on gender differences in problem drinking. So it is necessary to develop prevention education and specified intervention program by gender.
