TLDR
Research assessment exposure subject reactivity effects were related significantly to alcohol use and related negative consequences, such that subjects assigned to the infrequent-brief research assessment exposure condition reported the poorest outcomes.Abstract:
Objective: There has been increasing recognition among alcohol treatment researchers that research assessment exposure subject reactivity effects can contribute to clinical outcomes, decrease study design sensitivity, and confound research findings. The present study is an experimental investigation of two of the more salient components of the research assessment interview (i.e., frequency and comprehensiveness) and their effects on clinical outcomes (Part I: Alcohol Use and Related Consequences) and treatment participation (Part II: Treatment Engagement and Involvement). Method: The study design was a 2 (Frequency of Assessment) × 2 (Comprehensiveness of Assessment) completely randomized factorial, and study participants were randomly assigned, using an urn randomization procedure, to one of the resulting four experimental research assessment exposure conditions: (1) frequent-comprehensive, (2) frequent-brief, (3) infrequent-comprehensive, and (4) infrequent-brief. Study participants were recruited from ...read more

TL;DR: Answering questions on drinking in brief intervention trials appears to alter subsequent self-reported behaviour, and the effects of brief alcohol interventions may have been consistently under-estimated.

TL;DR: Preliminary data on short-term effects of a focused marijuana intervention for college students at reducing marijuana use during the academic quarter suggests a trend toward fewer marijuana-related consequences compared with the control group at 3-month follow-up.
