What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
AWARE behavioral intervention
What this could lead to
If it works, this could offer a practical program to help survivors of sexual trauma reduce heavy drinking and sexual distress.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-stage study with only 86 participants, so results may not apply to all survivors. The intervention is behavioral, not a drug, so effects may be modest.
