Text

Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for associations of AUD and ND with mood and anxiety disorders are presented in Table 3. In the U.S. sample, the associations were positive and generally statistically significant (78% of ORs with p<0.05) except for alcohol abuse (AA), in which associations with specific mood or anxiety disorders were not always significant. Conversely, among Korean respondents, few associations between AUD and specific mood or anxiety disorders reached statistical significance, owing to the wide confidence intervals resulting from the small KECA sample. Among statistically significant associations, however, the ORs were consistently larger among Koreans than among Americans, although the differences between country-specific ORs were not themselves statistically significant.
