Treatment seeking also varied according to the type of AUD (i.e., abuse vs. dependence). Compared to individuals with alcohol abuse, those with alcohol dependence were more likely to seek alcohol treatment (25% vs. 7%, OR = 4.07, 95% CI = 3.53–4.69, p<0.001), and to perceive an unmet need for such treatment (11% vs. 2%, OR = 6.76, 95% CI = 5.02–9.09, p<0.001).
