These studies were placed in the context of developments in alcohol research and in public health.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>After early pioneering work on brief interventions, further advances were not made until thinking about alcohol problems and their treatment, most notably on controlled drinking, along with wider changes in public health, created new conditions for progress. There was then a golden era of rapid advance in the late 1980s and early 1990s, when preventing the development of problem drinking became important for public health reasons, in addition to helping already problematic drinkers. Many research challenges identified at that time remain to be met. The content of brief interventions changed over the period of study, although not in ways well informed by research advances, and there were also obvious continuities, with a renewed emphasis on the facilitation of self\u2010change being one important consequence of the development of internet applications.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ideas about brief interventions have changed in important ways. Brief interventions have been studied with different populations of drinkers, with aims embracing both individual and population\u2010level perspectives, and without well\u2010specified contents. The brief intervention field is an appropriate target for further historical investigations, which may help thinking about addressing alcohol and other problems.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/add.12458","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,12,19]],"date-time":"2013-12-19T16:19:24Z","timestamp":1387469964000},"page":"538-546","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":44,"title":["The early history of ideas on brief interventions for alcohol"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"109","author":[{"given":"Jim","family":"McCambridge","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Public Health and Policy London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine  London UK"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"John A.","family":"Cunningham","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Mental Health Research The Australian National University  Canberra Australia"},{"name":"Centre for Addiction and Mental Health  Toronto Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2014,2,12]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_9_2_1","volume-title":"Brief Intervention for Hazardous and Harmful Drinking: A Manual for Use in Primary Care","author":"Babor T.
