NESARC W2 participants with past-year DSM-5 AUD were mostly male, white, married, of younger age, had family incomes above $35 thousand dollars, and had greater than a high school education (see Table 1). With regard to AUD severity, the mean number of past-year DSM-5 criteria met was 3.5 (range 2–11). Approximately 50% were classified as having been familiar with someone with alcohol problems (i.e. had a live-in partner or first-degree relative with alcohol problems). Major depression was the most prevalent comorbid psychiatric disorder (16%), and the prevalence of other disorders ranged from 2–11%.
