Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals, those with substance use disorders (excluding nicotine or caffeine), or with physical or psychiatric diseases cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing two types of training: performance feedback training and blood alcohol concentration discrimination training. The goal is to see if these methods can improve DUI offenders' awareness of the risks associated with drinking and driving.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves educational interventions rather than medical treatments, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, participants may experience stress or discomfort when confronting their behaviors related to alcohol consumption.
