Can your phone help you drink less? new study tests text alerts for young adults

NCT ID NCT07126613

Summary

This study tested whether a mobile phone program could help young adults reduce heavy drinking episodes. Researchers enrolled 40 adults aged 18-25 who reported recent heavy drinking and randomly assigned them to receive either the text-message intervention or regular surveys only. The goal was to see if the program was practical and acceptable, and whether it might help participants drink less and experience fewer alcohol-related problems.
