Objectives
Screening and Brief Intervention (SBI) is the gold standard in alcohol consumption reduction. This proposed project aims to adapt a self-developed SBI chatbot and conduct a proof-of-concept evaluation on its preliminary effectiveness and usability in reducing alcohol consumption after 4 week for at-risk working-age adults by using an open label, two-arm, parallel-group RCT.
