Motivational Interviewing at Intake for Addiction Treatment
This study is looking at two different ways to help people engage in addiction treatment. One approach is called "Motivational Interviewing at Intake (MII)," which involves a collaborative conversation about your goals for treatment and how it fits with your values. The other approach is "Intake as Usual (IAU)," which is a standard interview about your personal history. Researchers want to see if MII helps more people attend and complete their outpatient addiction treatment program. You might be able to join if you are an English-speaking adult seeking treatment for alcohol or other drug use, are at least 18 years old, and are physically withdrawn from alcohol or other drugs. The study aims to enroll 150 participants, but its current recruitment status is unclear.
