Abstract

The article analyzes the problem of alcohol behavior of women of reproductive age in Eastern Siberia and assessment of their quality of life. The authors analyze the current research of this problem and make a conclusion about the ambiguity of the solution of the problem of alcohol behavior in women and its connection with the quality of life. In a sample of 1,300 women (mean age 34.22±6.39), 816 of whom consumed alcohol, and 514 of whom consumed no alcohol, the authors conclude that women of reproductive age who consumed alcohol were less satisfied with their lives than women who did not consume alcohol, using the BDI and SF-12 methods and the Mann-Whitney U-criteria and the Pearson Chi-square. In addition, ethnic specificity was found to determine the relationship between alcohol use and life satisfaction and depressive symptoms. Finally, it turned out that depressive symptoms were predominantly related to the use of strong alcohol.
