Official Title: Culturally Adapted Brief Intervention for Heavy Drinking Hispanic Men: a Randomized Clinical Trial Among Injured Patients
Brief Summary: In this comparative-effectiveness study, investigators will recruit 400 English-speaking, Spanish-speaking, or bilingual heavy-drinking Mexican-origin men admitted to a community hospital for medical treatment of an alcohol-related injury or heavy drinking. Participants will be randomized to receive a culturally adapted brief motivational intervention (CA-BMI) or a non-adapted brief motivational intervention (NA-BMI). The primary outcomes of interest include alcohol use, alcohol problems, and treatment utilization. Secondary outcomes include therapeutic alliance ratings and social support. Telephone follow-up assessments will be completed at 3, 6, and 12 months post-treatment.
