“…Brief interventions have been increasingly investigated to promote early intervention in risky health behaviours. Indeed, Screening, Brief Intervention, and Referral to Treatment (SBIRT) protocols have been increasingly applied to promote the early identification and management of substance misuse [1,2]. Such protocols typically involve universal screening for alcohol or drug use, followed by a brief intervention or referral to specialized services if indicated.…”

Background Brief interventions have been increasingly investigated to promote early intervention in gambling problems; an accurate estimate of the impact of these interventions is required to justify their widespread implementation. The goal of the current investigation was to evaluate the efficacy of in-person brief interventions for reducing gambling behaviour and/or problems, by quantifying the aggregate effect size associated with these interventions in the published literature to date. Methods Randomized controlled trials including the following design features were identified via systematic review: an adult sample experiencing problems associated with gambling; an in-person individual psychosocial intervention of brief duration (≤3 sessions); a control/comparison group; and an outcome related to gambling behaviour and/or problems. Results Five records compared brief interventions to assessment only control; using a random effect model, brief interventions were associated with a small but statistically significant reduction in gambling behaviour across short-term follow-up periods versus assessment only control ( g = -.19, 95% CI [-.37, -.01]). Aggregate effect sizes for gambling problems and long-term follow-up periods were not statistically significant. Five records compared brief interventions to longer active interventions; there was no significant difference between brief interventions and longer active interventions. Conclusions Results supported the efficacy of brief interventions for problem gambling compared to inactive control in the reduction of gambling behaviour; no differences were found across brief versus longer interventions for both gambling behaviour and problems. While these findings must be interpreted in the context of the limited number of studies and small magnitude of the combined effect sizes, the current meta-analysis supports the further investigation of the public health impact of these cost-effective interventions.

“…In principal, SBIRT may be a versatile or flexible strategy that can be used in sites such as primary care or schools, and can be used as first-line treatment for adolescent substance misuse, or as a stepped approach to more intense or specialized treatment [36,38]. This comprehensive approach may also have public health benefits since early opportunistic identification and treatment of individuals engaging in risky substance use may delay, and optimally prevent, the onset of substance use problems [37,39]. Implementing this program in the most appropriate setting, within schools (or possibly also in primary care), has proved challenging despite the potential attributes of this approach [37,38].…”

Background: Drug and alcohol use during adolescence continues to be concerning, and evidence suggests this can be reduced with resiliency training. Here we provide results from a qualitative inquiry into the possible effectiveness of a resiliency program given to students in Grades 6-8 (aged 11-14) who were taking part in a larger program. Methods: As part of a larger series of interventions in schools (EMPATHY program), a translated resiliency program for youth, called Op Volle Kracht (OVK) in its original Dutch this in turn is a modified version of the Penn Resiliency Program (PRP). It was delivered during classroom time to 2,063 students in Grades 6-8 (aged 11-14). Qualitative data on student perspective on OVK was collected on an anonymous basis via electronic tablets. Of this population of 2,063 a total of 369 (18%) students participated in this qualitative study. Findings: Through content analysis, four main themes were identified. Students across all Grades reported learning new skills as the most appreciated feature of the OVK, specifically learning how to "bounce-back" from difficult situations. Learning relaxation techniques and tools to relieve stress were also reported as useful. Students in Grade 8 favoured incentives more than their younger peers, while the need for an interactive program was reported to be less useful with the older age group. Conclusions: This analysis is helpful in providing real-world feedback regarding what students, aged 11-14, found most helpful in dealing with their challenges. Overall, skills-training was the most valued feature, and this can be incorporated in future interventions to increase mental health resiliency in children and youth.
