Sammanfattning
There is a need to provide supportive services to children and adolescents
who grow up in families with alcohol problems. Since it has been difficult to
reach out with traditional support, new effective strategies are required and
support via the Internet is one possibility. The purpose of this study was to
investigate whether a web-based information and support program, Alcohol
& Coping, may succeed in reaching this group of adolescents. Results reveal
that Alcohol & Coping reached a large number of adolescents and that
those who received the program decreased their alcohol consumption. A
large proportion of adolescents also showed symptoms of depression and
one conclusion is that this group of adolescents are in need of a more comprehensive
Internet-based support program.
