Web-intervention for Couples Concerned About Drinking

This study is testing a web-based intervention (WBI) for couples where one partner is concerned about the other's drinking. The WBI uses principles from CRAFT (Community Reinforcement and Family Therapy) to help the concerned partner learn positive communication skills and self-care. Researchers want to see if this WBI can help the drinking partner reduce their alcohol use, improve the couple's relationship quality, and boost the concerned partner's well-being. You might be able to join if you are at least 18, in a romantic relationship, live with your partner, and feel safe. The study aims to enroll 275 participants, but its current status is unclear.

What's involved
The WBI involves four sessions. You will provide information at the start, daily (using EMA, or ecological momentary assessment), and one month after the intervention.
