Randomized controlled trial improved motivation to change in adults on probation, suggesting tailored interventions are crucial.
This study aimed to develop and evaluate the effectiveness of an alcohol intervention program for adults on probation with alcohol-related problems. Conducted within the probation system with 115 participants (58 intervention, 57 control), the six-session program significantly reduced alcohol use, related problems and increased motivation to change. As the first alcohol-specific intervention developed within Turkey's probation system, the study highlights the need for tailored approaches in criminal justice settings and offers a practical model for future programs.
