Data were collected in 2010 by means of a mail questionnaire.

Whether alcohol had been discussed and the duration, contents, experiences and effects of any conversations about alcohol, as reported by patients themselves, were assessed.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Findings\u2003<\/jats:bold> Sixty\u2010six per cent of the respondents had visited health\u2010care services in the past 12 months and 20% of these had had one or more conversations about alcohol during these visits (13% of the population aged 18\u201364 years). The duration of the conversations was generally brief, with 94% taking less than 5 minutes, and were not experienced as problematic. The duration, contents, experiences and effects of these conversations generally varied between abstainers, moderate, hazardous and excessive drinkers. Twelve per cent of those having a conversation about alcohol reported that it led to reduced alcohol consumption. Reduced alcohol consumption was more likely when conversations lasted for 1\u201310 minutes rather than less than 1 minute and included advice on how to reduce consumption.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusions\u2003<\/jats:bold> Population survey data in Sweden suggest that when health\u2010care professionals give brief advice to reduce alcohol consumption, greater effects are observed when the advice is longer and includes advice on how to achieve it.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1360-0443.2011.03476.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,4,25]],"date-time":"2011-04-25T06:13:44Z","timestamp":1303712024000},"page":"1748-1756","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":43,"title":["Brief interventions in routine health care: a population\u2010based study of conversations about alcohol in Sweden"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"106","author":[{"given":"Per","family":"Nilsen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jim","family":"McCambridge","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Nadine","family":"Karlsson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Preben","family":"Bendtsen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,6]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_6_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1360-0443.1994.tb00948.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/fampra\/13.2.182"},{"key":"e_1_2_6_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1360-0443.1986.tb00291.x"},{"issue":"2","key":"e_1_2_6_5_2","article-title":"Effectiveness of brief alcohol interventions in primary care populations","author":"Kaner E.
