Recruitment of problem drinkers.

D Cameron, M Spence

    The British Journal of Psychiatry : the Journal of Mental Science
    |December 1, 1976
    PubMed
    Summary

    Recruiting alcoholics for controlled drinking therapy proved difficult due to a low volunteer response rate. Further research is needed to understand and overcome barriers to participation in alcohol addiction treatment programs.

    Area of Science:

    • Addiction research
    • Psychotherapy
    • Behavioral modification

    Background:

    • Controlled drinking is a potential therapeutic goal for individuals with alcoholism.
    • Previous attempts to recruit participants for such programs have faced challenges.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To initiate the first phase of a project establishing controlled drinking as a therapeutic goal for alcoholics.
    • To recruit volunteers dissatisfied with their drinking habits who had not previously sought help.

    Main Methods:

    • Recruitment via a private phone number.
    • Proposed modification of drinking habits using non-aversive training, drinking practice, and group psychotherapy.

    Main Results:

    • The project was not implemented due to a paucity of volunteers.
    • Methods of recruitment were documented, and volunteers were described.

    Conclusions:

    • The low response rate indicates significant barriers to volunteer recruitment for this type of alcohol treatment.
    • Discussion of reasons for the low response rate is crucial for future recruitment strategies.
