Scientific title	Randomised controlled trial of motivational interviewing to reduce hazardous drinking among Russian working-age men
Study acronym	HIM
Study objectives	The study is a trial to explore the efficacy and acceptability of a brief intervention aimed at reducing the prevalence of hazardous drinking in working age men in a typical Russian city (Izhevsk). Hypothesis: A brief adaptation of motivational interviewing will be effective in reducing self-reported hazardous drinking at 3 months.
Ethics approval(s)	Ethics approval received from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine Ethics Committee on the 16th January 2008 (ref: 5230).
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied	Hazardous drinking
Intervention	An adaptation of Motivational Interviewing (MI) has been developed for the Russian context, and includes topics such as surrogate drinking and binge drinking (zapoi). MI involves empathic questioning and listening, with a view to the development of discrepancy between alcohol use and other goals and values and the eliciting of personalised statements about change. The full intervention comprises up to four sessions. These will be delivered at home or in a clinic by specially trained practitioners. The control group will not receive any intervention other than having a health check as part of the longitudinal study and being invited for 3 and 12 months follow-up.
