Computerized versus motivational interviewing alcohol interventions: Impact on discrepancy, motivation, and drinking.
Overview
This paper reports on two randomized clinical trials comparing computerized alcohol interventions with a comprehensive motivational interviewing approach (BASICS) among college student drinkers. The studies examine the relative efficacy of these methods and analyze mechanisms of change, such as motivation and discrepancy, in relation to drinking outcomes. Results indicate that while BASICS often generated greater post-session motivation or discrepancy compared to computerized alternatives, its impact on actual drinking reduction varied by study condition and participant demographics.
