A wide range of addictions is conceptualized as a chronic failure of self-regulation. Accordingly, the present study aimed to confirm the relationships among goal-focused self-regulation, depressive symptoms, and alcohol use problem, which is a common addictive behavior. A total of 470 adults were recruited from metropolitan cities in South Korea. All participants completed a questionnaire that included the Korean Version of the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test (AUDIT-K), Goal-Focused Self-Regulation Scale (GF-SRS), and Patient Health Qustionnaire-9 (PHQ-9). A correlation analysis revealed that goal-focused self-regulation was negatively correlated with both depressive symptoms and harmful alcohol use, while depressive symptoms were positively correlated with alcohol use problems. A structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed that a full mediation model had a better fit than a partial mediation model did. Additionally, the indirect effect was significant. In sum, these results suggest that goal-focused self-regulation might decrease depressive symptoms, which in turn would decrease the severity of the alcohol use problem. In line with these results, clinical implications and limitations of this study were discussed.
