简要总结
The aim of the study is to assess the efficacy of the My Choices - Alcohol program by comparing alcohol-use of people before and after doing the program to people that did not do the program on the same period of time (3 months).
详细描述
People with an alcohol addiction problem consume an average of 26.3 (sd = 12.4) drinks per week (Cournoyer et al., 2010). To observe a decrease of 25% in this average number of drinks for the group participating in the program " My Choices " immediately compared to the delayed group at 3 months, we need a sample size of 100 participants. This calculation assumes an alpha of 5%, a power of 80% and unbalanced groups due to the randomization method used. Considering an attrition rate of 11.3% at 3 months and 20% at 6 months (Tremblay et al., Submitted), it will be necessary to recruit at least 120 participants to maintain the required number for analyses.

主要结局
Change in the Inventory of consequences associated with alcohol use
时间窗: 2 weeks within eligibility evaluation, 3 and 6 months after first interview (The first admission has been October 28th and the last one is anticipated June 30th)
It is a 7-items questionnaire, with a 0-10 (Never to always) scale that measures the consequences of alcohol consumption.
Change in the Severity of dependence scale (SDS)
时间窗: 2 weeks within eligibility evaluation, 3 and 6 months after first interview (The first admission has been October 28th and the last one is anticipated June 30th)
The Severity of Dependence Scale (SDS) is a 5-item self-administered questionnaire that provides a score indicating the severity of dependence on drugs with a 4-point scale from 0 (Never) to 3 (Always). Score 0 indicates no dependence, score between 1-2 indicates low dependence, score between 3-5 indicates moderate dependance and score between 6 and 15 indicates a high dependance.
Change in self-reports of alcohol with the time-line follow-back (TLFB) in the last 90 days
时间窗: 2 weeks within eligibility evaluation, 3 and 6 months after first interview (The first admission has been October 28th and the last one is anticipated June 30th)
The timeline follow-Back is a research tool to obtain self-reported quantitatives estimates of alcohol used every day in the last 3 months in term of standard drink. (Sobell \& Sobell) Participants are asked in the first interview (2 weeks within eligibility evaluation) to remember day by day how many standard drinks they have had in the last 90 days.
Change in the Short Alcohol Dependance Data Questionnaire (SADD)
时间窗: 2 weeks within eligibility evaluation, 3 and 6 months after first interview (The first admission has been October 28th and the last one is anticipated June 30th)

It comprises 15 items with a four-point frequency scale (never,sometimes, often, nearly always). A total score between 0 and 45 is obtained by adding the score from each of the items. Scores between 0 - 9 indicates low dependence, scores between 10 - 19 indicates medium dependence and a score of 20 or more indicates high dependence.
