TL;DR: There was no overall effect of MI on any outcome measure, and there were reductions in consequences and dependence symptoms in groups that received feedback, as compared to groups that did not receive feedback.
Abstract: Motivational interviewing (MI) is a brief intervention that has been shown to reduce heavy drinking among college students Because all college studies of MI to date have included a personalized feedback report, it remains unclear which of the components is necessary to produce behavior change This study evaluated the separate and collective effects of MI and feedback among 122 "binge" drinking college students Participants were randomized to: (1) MI with feedback, (2) MI without feedback, (3) Mailed feedback only, (4) MI with mailed feedback, or (5) Assessment only control At an eight-week follow-up, all groups reduced their consumption, peak BAC, consequences, and dependence symptoms For females, there were reductions in consequences and dependence symptoms in groups that received feedback, as compared to groups that did not receive feedback For females, there was an effect of the feedback on consequences and dependence symptoms, but was no overall effect of MI on any outcome measure

TL;DR: This article evaluated the cross-cultural transportability of motivational interviewing (MI), an evidence-based addiction treatment method, and found that post-training gains in MI proficiency were at least as large as those found earlier with predominantly non-Hispanic White providers.
Abstract: This study evaluated the cross-cultural transportability of motivational interviewing (MI), an evidence-based addiction treatment method. Free clinical training in MI was offered in separate targeted workshops for 86 African American, Native American, and Spanish-speaking addiction treatment providers. Audiotaped pre- and posttraining clinical work samples were coded for indexes of MI competence. In all 3 samples, posttraining gains in MI proficiency were at least as large as those found earlier with predominantly non-Hispanic White providers. Combined with evidence for the efficacy of MI in minority populations, these findings support the cross-cultural applicability of MI.

TL;DR: On nearly every landmass of the earth there are indigenous peoples who have been displaced from what were once their native lands as mentioned in this paper, and these populations are as diverse as humanity can be: the Maori of New Zealand, the Eskimos and Athabascans of Alaska, the black and colored peoples of South Africa, the Aboriginal people of Australia, African-Americans, Native Hawaiians, the Indians north and south of America's Rio Grande.
Abstract: On nearly every landmass of the earth there are indigenous peoples who have been displaced from what were once their native lands. Some have been relocated to designated reservations, often in isolated and resource-poor areas. Others have been dispersed into remote wilderness. Sometimes attempts have been made to exterminate them, or to strip away their native culture and assimilate them. Some populations have been removed from their homeland altogether, deported to foreign soil as prisoners or slaves. These displaced peoples are as diverse as humanity can be: the Maori of New Zealand, the Eskimos and Athabascans of Alaska, the black and colored peoples of South Africa, the Aboriginal people of Australia, African-Americans, Native Hawaiians, the Indians north and south of America’s Rio Grande.

TL;DR: To assess the effectiveness of motivational interviewing for substance abuse on drug use, retention in treatment, readiness to change, and number of repeat convictions, 59 studies with a total of 13,342 participants were included.
Abstract: There are 76.3 million people with alcohol use disorders worldwide and 15.3 million with drug use disorders. Motivational interviewing (MI) is a client-centred, semi-directive method for enhancing intrinsic motivation to change by exploring and resolving ambivalence. The intervention is used widely, and therefore it is important to find out whether it helps, harms or is ineffective.The objective of this review is to assess the effectiveness of motivational interviewing for substance abuse on drug use, retention in treatment, readiness to change, and number of repeat convictions.
