Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Moderate drinking technologies with "lower tech" facilitation
Brief motivational-interviewing-based counseling followed by use of three moderate drinking technologies (breath alcohol device and app, blood alcohol content estimator app and self-texting procedure) with "lower tech" facilitation.
Alcohol-related mobile health technologies
Participants will be asked to use the three mobile technologies as they choose while drinking for a two-week period.
Motivational interview and psychoeducation on blood/breath alcohol concentration
Brief 25/30-minute motivational interview and psychoeducation on blood/breath alcohol concentration that includes both personalized and standardized information.
Lower tech facilitation
Study staff will review instructions for technology use closely with participants and guide them in use of existing phone technologies as reminders for use of the three moderate drinking technologies during drinking situations.
