In particular, personalized feedback interventions (PFIs) often delivered within the context of a brief motivational interview (BMI) have been shown to be efficacious with heavy drinking volunteer students (e.g., Baer, Kivlahan, Blume, McKnight, & Marlatt, 2001; Baer, Marlatt, Kivlahan, Fromme, Larimer, & Williams, 1992; Borsari & Carey, 2000; Carey, Carey, Misto, & Henson, 2006; Larimer et al., 2001; Marlatt et al., 1998; Murphy et al., 2001) and mandated students (Borsari & Carey, 2005; White, Mun, Pugh, & Morgan, 2007). The theoretical rationale behind PFIs is that personalized feedback will increase a student's readiness to change his or her drinking behaviors (Miller & Rollnick, 2002).
