Includes bibliographical references. The overconsumption of alcohol is one of the leading preventable causes of many adverse health, psychological, and social problems. Alcohol consumption patterns for South Africa from various findings were reported and compared to global levels and patterns. It was illustrated that psychosocial factors are controversial yet generally regarded as having an important role to play in understanding population health problems and alcohol consumption patterns. Risk factors for problematic and binge drinking among women in South Africa were identified. The aim of this study was to explore psychosocial factors and their associations with problematic and binge drinking behaviour among women who currently drink between 18 - 44 years of age in an urban and rural setting in South Africa. 2015-01-10T13:36:38Z 2015-01-10T13:36:38Z 2012 Master Thesis Masters MPhil http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11998 eng application/pdf Department of Public Health and Family Medicine Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town |
