Brief Summary:
The purpose of this study is to look at the effects of assessment feedback and motivational interviewing on alcohol consumption among college drinkers
Detailed Description:
Excessive alcohol consumption has been a growing problem at many US colleges In response colleges and universities have instituted a range of alcohol intervention and prevention programs for students Motivational Interviewing MI is one brief intervention that has been shown to reduce heavy drinking among college students To date all college studies of MI have used a format that includes an assessment and feedback delivered in an MI style Although this format has considerable empirical support it remains unclear which of the components is necessary to produce behavior change This study will evaluate the separate and collective effects of MI and feedback among binge drinking college students Additionally this study will evaluate the effects of the initial drinking assessment through including a delayed-assessment control group After an initial screen 350 students at Southern Methodist University who report at least one heavy ie binge episode during the previous two weeks will be randomized to 1 MI with feedback 2 MI without feedback 3 Mailed feedback only 4 Assessment only or 5 Delayed assessment only MI sessions will be delivered by trained and supervised counselors Participants will be assessed via a secure Internet site at baseline 3 6 and 12 months 12 months only for the Delayed-assessment group with primary outcome measures including self-reported quantity and frequency of drinking and drinking-related problems Since college drinking is associated with substantial negative effects for drinkers as well as for others the findings of this study may have significant public health implications in terms of reducing costs and improving services for students who choose to drink
