Improving feelings of control may curb desire to drink

Cox, from Bangor University in the UK, co-authored the study along with Zohreh Shamloo of Ferdowsi University of Mashhad in Iran. For their study, Shamloo and Cox enrolled 106 students from Bangor University who were light to moderate drinkers. Participants in the high sense of control group were allowed to choose their tasks and were given hints on how to complete them. Participants in the low sense of control group didn't get any clues on how to solve the tasks and received feedback based on their performance with no encouragement or discouragement.
