Introduction: The aim of this study was to test whether brief alcohol interventions at general hospitals work equally well for males and females and across age-groups. Methods: The current study includes a reanalysis of data reported in the PECO study (testing delivery channels of individualized motivationally tailored alcohol interventions among general hospital patients: in PErson vs. COmputer-based) and is therefore of exploratory nature. At-risk drinking general hospital patients aged 18–64 years (N = 961) were randomized to in-person counseling, computer-generated individualized feedback letters, or assessment only. Both interventions were delivered on the ward and 1 and 3 months later. Follow-ups were conducted at months 6, 12, 18, and 24. The outcome was grams of alcohol/day. Study group × sex and study group × age interactions were tested as predictors of change in grams of alcohol/day over 24 months in latent growth models. If rescaled likelihood ratio tests indicated improved model fit due to the inclusion of interactions, moderator level-specific net changes were calculated. Results: Model fit was not significantly improved due to the inclusion of interaction terms between study group and sex (χ2[6] = 5.9, p = 0.439) or age (χ2[6] = 5.5, p = 0.485). Discussion: Both in-person counseling and computer-generated feedback letters may work equally well among males and females as well as among different age-groups. Therefore, widespread delivery of brief alcohol interventions at general hospitals may be unlikely to widen sex and age inequalities in alcohol-related harm.

性别和年龄在调节综合医院面对面和基于计算机的简短酒精干预结果中的作用:一项简短干预研究的再分析

简介:本研究的目的是测试综合医院的短期酒精干预是否对男性和女性以及不同年龄组同样有效。方法:当前的研究包括对 PECO 研究中报告的数据的重新分析(测试综合医院患者个性化动机定制酒精干预的交付渠道:基于个人与计算机),因此具有探索性。18-64 岁有饮酒风险的综合医院患者( N= 961) 被随机分配到面对面咨询、计算机生成的个性化反馈信或仅进行评估。两种干预措施均在病房内以及 1 个月和 3 个月后进行。在第 6 个月、12 个月、18 个月和 24 个月进行了随访。结果是酒精克数/天。研究组 × 性别和研究组 × 年龄相互作用在潜在生长模型中被测试为 24 个月内每天酒精克数变化的预测因子。如果重新调整的似然比检验表明由于包含相互作用而改进了模型拟合,则计算调节剂水平特定的净变化。结果:由于纳入了研究组和性别(χ 2 [6] = 5.9,p = 0.439)或年龄(χ 2[6] = 5.5,p = 0.485)。讨论:面对面的咨询和计算机生成的反馈信在男性和女性以及不同年龄组中可能同样有效。因此,在综合医院广泛提供简短的酒精干预可能不太可能扩大酒精相关危害中的性别和年龄不平等。
