본 연구는 음주예방 집단상담이 대학생의 음주거절 효능감과 음주결과 기대 및 음주행위에 미치는 효과를 알아보는 것이었다. 연구대상은 교양과목을 수강하는 187명의 대학생 중 음주문제로 고민을 가지고 있는 20명이었다. 이들은 실험집단과 통제집단에 각각 10명씩 무선배치 되었다. 집단상담 형 태의 음주예방 프로그램은 음주거절 효능감 이론과 음주결과 기대 이론 및 문헌연구에 기초하여 이론적 틀을 마련하였으며 포커스 그룹을 통한 심층면접, 집단토론을 통해 대상자 요구분석을 실시하였다. 개강하는 주, 참여자 모집기간과 접수 면접, 참여자 오리엔테이션, 중간고사 1주일 전과 중간 고사 기간, 기말고사 1주일 전과 기말고사 기간을 제외한 8주를 고려하여 8회기로 구성하였다. 실험 집단은 1주일에 1회씩 8회기에 걸쳐 한 학기 동안 지속되는 집단상담 형태의 음주예방 집단상담에 참여하였고 통제집단은 아무런 실험 처치도 받지 않고 프로그램 시작 전후에 사전 및 사후 검사에 만 참여하였다. 그 결과 첫째, 음주예방 집단상담에 참여한 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 음주거절 효능감이 향상되었다. 둘째, 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 음주결과기대가 감소하는 긍정적인 변화가 있었다. 셋째, 실험집단은 통제집단에 비해 음주빈도와 음주량이 감소하였다. 끝으로 연구결과가 상 담에 주는 함의와 이 연구의 제한점이 논의되었다.

Korean has regarded drinkers as the good-natured for a long time. Nowadays, heavy drinking is also thought of a natural phenomenon of society. In this context, the drinking culture of universities is serious as much as that of adults, causing individual problems and growing into a more serious problem.

The instruments of this study were the scale of drinking refusal self-efficacy, alcohol expectancy, and drinking behaviors. The data was analysed by Chi-square, Mann-Whitney U test, and Wilcoxon signed rank test. The average, standard deviation, and estimated marginal means were calculated and the differences between the pre and post-tests calculated, processed by SPSS 12.0.
