Study Summary
This trial will test whether using Motivational Interviewing at Intake (MII) with adults seeking outpatient addiction treatment leads to better engagement with treatment and understand why this is the case. Personnel feedback will be gathered on whether MII is feasible to implement into standard practice.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking adults seeking outpatient treatment for alcohol or drug use, who are willing to follow study procedures and have given informed consent. It's also open to staff at the treatment programs. Participants must not be physically dependent on substances at the time of intake.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two approaches: usual intake procedures versus Motivational Interviewing at Intake (MII) to see which is more effective in engaging clients in addiction treatment. The trial will also assess how easy it is to integrate MII into regular practice.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial involves counseling techniques rather than medication, traditional side effects are not expected. However, participants may experience emotional discomfort discussing their substance use during motivational interviewing sessions.
