The current systematic review analyzed empirical studies examining the effectiveness of brief alcohol interventions (BAI) for at-risk older adults. The authors independently reviewed the literature according to specific  a priori  criteria. Quantity and frequency of drinking, binge-drinking days, and drinking risks comprised the outcome measures. The current review yielded 11 studies representing randomized controlled trials or experimental designs that employed random assignment. Among reviewed studies, seven (63.6%) showed a positive effect with only one showing no positive effect of the intervention. For the remaining 3 (27.2%), the positive effect of the intervention was not conclusively determined due to study design issues. Findings, overall suggest that BAI are effective in reducing alcohol consumption in the older-adult population. Additional evidence is needed to further knowledge consistent with recent initiatives that promote healthy aging.
