This outcomes assessment was implemented to evaluate a web-based alcohol use recovery program, Tempest Sobriety School (TSS), and to provide a model for outcome evaluation. Adults (=541) enrolled in TSS were assessed at pre-program start and Month 2, 6, and 12. Participants reported decreased alcohol use, drug use, craving for alcohol, and alcohol use disorder symptoms over the course of the program; changes were maintained at Month 6 and 12. Participants reported sustained increases in overall physical and mental health and quality of life. Findings will inform TSS students and stakeholders and provide a model for others conducting similar evaluations.
实施此次结果评估是为了评估一个基于网络的酒精使用康复项目——暴风雨戒酒学校(TSS),并提供一个结果评估模型。对报名参加TSS的成年人(=541人)在项目开始前以及第2、6和12个月进行了评估。参与者报告称,在项目过程中,酒精使用、药物使用、对酒精的渴望以及酒精使用障碍症状均有所减少;这些变化在第6个月和第12个月得以维持。参与者报告称,整体身心健康和生活质量持续提高。研究结果将为TSS的学生和利益相关者提供信息,并为其他进行类似评估的人提供一个模型。
