Objectives: This study examined the factors affecting alcohol consumption in the elderly to determine what is needed to develop a prevention program for problem drinking. Methods: This study enrolled 446 elderly people who visited 32 halls for the elderly at Pyeongtaek city, Ansan city and Osan city in Gyeonggi province. The statistical methods used for data analysis were the descriptive statistics, chi-square, correlation analysis, multiple regression analysis and multiple linear regression analysis. Results: First, smoking, number of drinks consume, eating habits and stress were significantly related to problem drinking among the elderly. Second, multiple regression analysis for the CAGE 4 items revealed stress to be associated with 3 items and gender to be associated with 2 items. Third, problem drinking was correlated with smoking, number of drinks consume, eating habits, stress, gender and number of visiting halls for the elderly. Finally, multiple linear regression analysis showed that eating habits, stress and gender affected problem drinking. Conclusion: Problem drinking in the elderly is associated with complicated health behavior, particularly smoking, eating habits and stress. To improve the intervention program for problem drinking, it is essential to consider drinking, smoking, eating habits and stress as a single health behavior unit.
