Manualized psychosocial intervention based on motivational enhancement therapy, functional analysis, and implementation of a change plan.

The Timeline Follow-back (TLFB) method is used to calculate drinks per day. The TLFB is a method for assessing the number of drinks of alcohol on a daily basis over the previous 30 days. For each day in the recall period, the participant indicates the number of drinks of alcohol they consumed. The TLFB provides a calendar prompt and number of other memory aids (e.g., holidays, payday, and other personally relevant dates) to facilitate accurate recall of drug use during the target period.
