Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

In this study 177 adolescents meeting criteria for alcohol use disorders (AUD) received weekly cognitive-behavioral therapy group sessions. 144 completers were randomized into the 3 individual aftercare (AR) conditions noted above.
