Intervention Participants were randomized to 10–15 minutes of web-based assessment and personalized feedback on their drinking (intervention, n = 51) or to a leaflet-only control group (n = 53). Findings Mean baseline AUDIT scores for control and intervention groups were 16.6 (SD = 6.0) and 16.6 (SD = 5.7). At 6 weeks, participants receiving e-SBI reported significantly lower total consumption (geometric mean ratio = 0.74; 95% confidence interval: 0.56–0.96), lower heavy episode frequency (0.63; 0.42–0.92) and fewer personal problems (0.70; 0.54–0.91). At 6 months personal problems remained lower (0.76; 0.60–0.97), although consumption did not differ significantly. At 6 months, academic problems were lower in the intervention group relative to controls (0.72; 0.51–1.02). Conclusions e-SBI reduced hazardous drinking among university students, to an extent similar to that found for practitioner-delivered brief interventions in the general population. e-SBI offers promise as a strategy to reduce alcohol-related harm in a way that is non-intrusive, appealing to the target group, and capable of being incorporated into primary care. Research is required to replicate the findings, to determine the duration of intervention effects, and to investigate the mechanisms by which the intervention operates.]]> Wed 11 Apr 2018 12:26:16 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:11843 Wed 11 Apr 2018 12:18:00 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35768 Tue 06 Jun 2023 13:29:56 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:5507 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:47:02 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:4462 Sat 24 Mar 2018 07:18:29 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:34386 Mon 23 Sep 2019 13:52:06 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:50081 Fri 14 Jul 2023 11:22:46 AEST ]]>
