Chunk #17 — Substance Misuse in North America — Personality-Targeted Interventions for the Prevention of Alcohol and Illicit Drug Misuse: the Preventure Programme
The programme does not focus on substance use but rather on risky personality-based ways of coping that may lead to substance misuse or other risky behaviour, such as aggressive thinking, interpersonal dependence and avoidance. Therefore, only one page of the 35-page treatment manual [59] directly refers to substance use as a risky coping strategy, and an additional couple of scenarios might describe substance use by secondary characters mentioned in high-risk scenarios.
