Web-based intervention trialled with Swedish adolescents
It is estimated that approximately 20% of all Swedish children grow up with parents having alcohol problems. Web-ICAIP (Individual Coping and Alcohol Intervention Program) has shown promising results with older subjects and is now being assessed when used with adolescents. The programme aims to strengthen coping behaviour, improve mental health and reduce risky alcohol consumption. This open access BMC paper describes the programme and the randomized controlled trial.
