N2  - Thirty-one self-referred problem drinkers were randomly assigned to one of two modalities for behavioral self-control training with a goal of moderation: (1) minimal therapist contact, in which clients worked only with a self-help manual; and (2) therapist directed training, in which clients received self-help materials plus 10 individual treatment sessions. Both groups showed significant reductions in alcohol consumption and peak blood alcohol concentration. Contrary to expectations, there were no significant differences on outcome measures between groups. <br><br>RESULTS are interpreted within a self-control framework.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
