Summary

This study is testing two ways to help teenagers reduce their alcohol use. Both groups get a short counseling session with their doctor. One group also gets a smartphone app that teaches mindfulness. The study will follow 1,500 teens for a year to see which approach works better.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
brief motivational interviewing and a smartphone app for mindfulness training
What this could lead to
If it works, this could give doctors a simple, effective way to help teens drink less alcohol.
What could go wrong
This is a large trial, but it's testing a behavioral intervention, not a drug. Results may vary, and the app might not add much benefit over counseling alone.
