没有严重身体酒精依赖史的酗酒问题妇女(N = 144)接受了减少饮酒培训,并被分配接受(或不接受)2种强化治疗:生活技能培训和强化治疗。该设计产生了4种治疗条件:减少饮酒治疗(DRT)加生活技能培训,DRT加强化课程,DRT加生活技能培训和强化课程,或仅DRT。干预措施包括13小时的DRT, 7小时用于生活技能培训或无生活技能培训教育模块,另外8小时为接受这些培训的人提供强化课程。在治疗后的18个月里,参与者证明酒精使用显著减少。那些预处理饮酒量较大的人对实验操作的反应不同:治疗增强(生活技能和助推器)导致预处理时重度饮酒者的饮酒结果显着改善。预处理时,在轻度饮酒者中,治疗增强没有显著效果。研究结果支持在干预措施中加强治疗,以缓和女性饮酒者的酒精使用问题。
Problem-drinking women (N = 144) without histories of severe physical dependence on alcohol received drinking-reduction training and were assigned to receive (or not receive) 2 treatment enhancements: life-skills training and booster sessions. The design resulted in 4 treatment conditions: drinking-reduction treatment (DRT) plus life-skills training, DRT plus booster sessions, DRT plus life-skills training and booster sessions, or DRT only. The interventions entailed 13 hr of DRT, 7 hr devoted to the Life-skills training or to a no-life-skills training educational module, plus 8 hr of booster sessions for those receiving them. Participants evidenced significant reductions in alcohol use during the 18 months after treatment. Those with greater pretreatment drinking evidenced differential response to the experimental manipulations: The treatment enhancements (life skills and booster sessions) led to significantly improved drinking outcomes among women who were heavier drinkers at pretreatment. There were no significant effects of the treatment enhancements among lighter drinkers at pretreatment. The results provide support for use of treatment enhancements in interventions designed to moderate women problem drinkers' alcohol use.
