“…In general, the process feedback provided was positive in terms of the usefulness of the site: 57% of participants reported that the websites were interesting (Westrup et al, 2003), 61% accurate in feedback (Cunningham et al,2000), 80% helpful (Linke et al, 2004) and 20%-56% useful (Bendsten et al, 2006;Cunningham et al, 2000). At least three quarters of participants also reported finding the sites easy to use (Bendsten et al, 2006; Westrup et al, 2003).…”

Both experimental and review studies comparing a combination of such methods have found that providing feedback as an intervention for alcohol use can be effective regardless of the delivery mode (e.g.…”

“…Nielson//NetRatings global trends data from 2002 show that as many as 79% of Americans, 72% of Australians and 68% of the UK population have access to the internet with access figures continuing to rise (Steyn and Chan, 2003). Furthermore research shows that there is potentially a sizable demand for internet-based interventions for substance use (Saitz et al, 2004;Cloud and Peacock, 2001;Cunningham et al, 2000). It is also suggested that…”

A C C E P T E D M A N U S C R I P T ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT A C C E P T E D M A N U S C R I P T ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 2 AbstractObjective: To review the published literature on the effectiveness of web-based interventions designed to decrease consumption of alcohol and/or prevent alcohol abuse.Method: Relevant articles published up to, and including, May 2006 were identified through electronic searches of Medline, PsycInfo, Embase, Cochrane Library, ASSIA, Web of Science and Science Direct. Reference lists of all articles identified for inclusion were checked for articles of relevance. An article was included if its stated or implied purpose was to evaluate a web-based intervention designed to decrease consumption of alcohol and/or to prevent alcohol abuse. Studies were reliably selected and quality-assessed, and data were independently extracted and interpreted by two authors.Results: Initial searches identified 191 articles of which 10 were eligible for inclusion. Of these, five provided a process evaluation only, with the remaining five providing some pre-to postintervention measure of effectiveness. In general the percentage quality criteria met was relatively low and only one of the 10 articles selected was a randomized control trial. Conclusion:The current review provides inconsistent evidence on the effectiveness of eIectronic screening and brief intervention (eSBI) for alcohol use. Process research suggests that web-based interventions are generally well received. However further controlled trials are needed to fully investigate their efficacy, to determine which elements are key to outcome and to understand if different elements are required in order to engage low and high risk drinkers.Key Words: Alcohol; Brief Interventions; Web-Based; Personalized Feedback; Systematic Review. A C C E P T E D M A N U S C R I P T ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPT 3 IntroductionBrief interventions for health problems such as alcohol use disorders have been of growing interest over the last few decades (Moyer et al., 2002). Several reviews have been conducted on the effectiveness of face-to-face brief interventions in health care and treatment settings (Moyer et al., 2002;Bien et al., 1993). Results are consistent, showing that brief interventions are more effective than no counseling (Bien et al., 1993).Personalized feedback is often incorporated into brief interventions and aims to encourage behavior and/or attitude change. Studies suggest that incorporating social norms information into feedback interventions can help decrease alcohol consumption, encouraging participants to beco...
