Study Objectives / Outcomes

1. Assess MAPS and MAPS+ effects on alcohol at-risk behaviors and smoking cessation.

. Assess

MAPS and MAPS+ effects on treatment mechanisms (increased self-efficacy, decreased temptations/craving, decreased stress and negative affect) and the role of those mechanisms in mediating MAPS and MAPS+ effects on alcohol at-risk behaviors and smoking cessation.

3. Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of MAPS and MAPS+ in the reduction of at-risk drinking and smoking cessation.
