The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship among drinking motivation, daily stress and problem drinking behavior, and to identify the influencing factors of problem drinking behavior in female university students. The participants were 259 female students in university. The data was collected for 1 months from Oct. 28 to Nov. 28, 2013 in a university-located Y city. Questionnaires were used to measure the levels of the drinking motivation, daily stress, and problem drinking behavior. The data was analyzed using descriptive statistics, t-test, ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, stepwise regression, and the IBMSPSS/WIN 19.0 program. The predicting factors for problem drinking behavior were drinking motivation, type of residency and smoking. The variables explained the problem drinking behavior by 35.7%. A survey of the various influencing factors of problem drinking behavior will be required and a drinking reduction program for female university students is needed.
