Assessment

Primary outcomes

Change in HDD(Heavy Drinking Day) repeatedly measured by TLFB which is provided during baseline(one time/week, three times in total) and during intervention(one time/week, 8 times in total).

HDD is calculated weekly. The calculation for HDD is that the number of days which the amount of alcohol consumption is higher than 61g per day in men, or 41g per day in women is divided by the number of days which the data of alcohol consumption is correctly obtained (not missed)and multiplied by 7.
If the number of days which the data is correctly obtained (not missed)was less than 3 days per a week, all the datas of the week will be treated as missing datas.

Key secondary outcomes

- TAC(total alcohol consumption) repeatedly measured by TLFB which is provided during baseline(one time/week, three times in total) and during intervention(one time/week, 8 times in total)
The calculation for TAC is similar to that for HDD. Also, a missing data is defined in Primary outcome section.
- Change in quality of life(AQolS) and productivity(HPQ) after the 8-weeks-intervention compared with the baseline period.
- TLFB at 12 weeks and 24 weeks after the intervention.
