title: [An alcohol contact program: training for increased security of alcoholics in trial situations].
abstract: Alcoholics who have taken the decision to abstain are known to develop, partially out of fear of a relapse, an almost phobic avoidance behaviour towards situations where alcoholic drinks may be proffered. Starting from this observation a four-hour behavioural programme, involving modeling and the discussion of appropriate behaviour, was developed to prepare patients for such situations. The two methods resulted in equally highly significant improvement, as measured both by self-assessment and by the assessment of independent observers.
