First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests whether a 30-day alcohol abstinence challenge, supported by a mobile app, is feasible and helps reduce heavy drinking. Researchers will enroll 150 adults in Oklahoma who drink regularly. Participants will try to completely avoid alcohol for one month, and the study will track how many people sign up, stick with it, and successfully stay alcohol-free.
