The association of socio-demographic factors and life events with psychotropic drug consumption, alcohol abuse, and minor psychiatric morbidity was investigated in a representative community sample of 181 respondents living in Verona, Italy. A logistic multiple regression analysis revealed that psychotropic drug use was best predicted by family size and employment status; alcohol abuse by sex, family size, and exit events; and minor psychiatric morbidity by sex, marital status, and undesirable life events.

Abstract
The association of socio-demographic factors and life events with psychotropic drug consumption, alcohol abuse, and minor psychiatric morbidity was investigated in a representative community sample of 181 respondents living in Verona, Italy. A logistic multiple regression analysis revealed that psychotropic drug use was best predicted by family size and employment status; alcohol abuse by sex, family size, and exit events; and minor psychiatric morbidity by sex, marital status, and undesirable life events.
