These decisions rest on professional judgement, making it essential to understand the foundations of such judgement to grasp social work practice. This qualitative study explores professional decision-making and practice among Danish addiction counsellors working in outpatient treatment for alcohol use disorders. The aim was to examine what the counsellors base their professional judgements on and the reasoning that informs their decisions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Utilizing the vignette method, we conducted semi-structured interviews with 12 addiction counsellors.
