Summary: The study aimed to develop and adapt a communication training intervention for ob-gyn clinicians to improve vaccine uptake during pregnancy. Interviews and focus group discussions with clinicians and staff provided insights into the relevance and improvement of the intervention. Participants found the training intervention useful and recommended more interactivity, inclusion of complex scenarios, and involvement of non-clinician staff.

Summary: This study aimed to evaluate the association between provider adherence to Tailored Motivational Interviewing implementation strategy and motivational interviewing (MI) competence. Through assessing 156 youth-focused HIV providers, it was found that overall adherence was not associated with overall MI competence. MI competence significantly increased from Baseline to Implementation and Baseline to Sustainment. Some individual implementation strategies were associated with change in competence and the probability of achieving Intermediate/Advanced competence. The results suggest that 100% percent adherence to all TMI implementation strategies may not be necessary.

Summary: The study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of motivational interviewing on lifestyle behavior changes after TIA or minor stroke, but the results showed no significant impact. However, the overall lifestyle behavior change was high in both groups, indicating a potential role of specialized nurses.

Summary: Internet-delivered cognitive behavioral therapy (ICBT) can improve access to mental health care for students, but high attrition rates and long-term outcomes remain challenges. This study examined the use of pretreatment motivational interviewing (MI) exercises and booster lessons in ICBT for postsecondary students. Results showed that pretreatment MI did not contribute to better treatment completion or engagement, while small between-group effects favored MI for reductions in depression and anxiety after treatment. The low uptake of the self-guided booster limited the conclusions regarding its effectiveness.

Summary: This feasibility study investigated the potential use of a brief MI resource offered during ICBT. Approximately 15% of clients used the resource and found it beneficial. Clients who were older, had higher education, scored in the clinical range on depression, and scored lower on anxiety were more likely to use the resource. Those who used the resource had higher engagement in ICBT but lower improvement in disability post-treatment.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of a telephone intervention conducted by a Swedish state-owned gambling operator on problem gamblers. The survey results show that the majority of gamblers were satisfied with the intervention and perceived a decrease in their gambling behavior. Although some gamblers turned to other operators after the intervention, the number was limited.

Summary: Appalachian Kentuckians have a higher incidence and mortality rate of colorectal cancer compared to the rest of Kentucky, with lower screening rates. This study evaluated the effectiveness of motivational interviewing intervention delivered by Lay Health Advisors on CRC screening. The results showed no difference in screening rates between the intervention and control groups, but the intervention group had a higher perceived susceptibility to colorectal cancer. Age and financial adequacy were also found to impact CRC screening.

Summary: This scoping review examined the characteristics of technology-adapted motivational interviewing (TAMI) interventions and found that TAMIs may improve some health promotion and disease management behaviors. However, there is limited design specifically for marginalized sociodemographic groups, and no elements addressing sociocontextual challenges are included. Further research is needed to determine the impact of TAMIs on individual health outcomes, incorporate elements addressing sociocontextual factors, and identify best practices for implementing TAMIs in clinical practice.

Summary: Motivational Interviewing (MI) techniques applied early after stroke can facilitate psychological adjustment, but unintended variability in implementation exists. Our study found that variability in therapist characteristics and MI dose did not affect participant outcome, potentially due to high fidelity to MI principles.

Summary: The study aimed to improve the competence of providers in managing HIV in minority youth by providing the behavioral intervention program of TMI. Results showed a significant increase in competence scores in the TMI group, validating the effectiveness of TMI. Qualitative findings indicated that time constraints and competing priorities were barriers to implementing TMI, while integrating MI into agency practices and providing ongoing training could facilitate implementation.

Summary: A motivational interviewing (MI)-based brief intervention was conducted with high-risk drinking outpatients in internal medicine settings in Korea. Participants were assigned to a MI group or a control group, with both groups showing decreased AUDIT-C scores after four weeks, although not significantly different. However, the intervention group had a greater decrease in AUDIT-C scores over time compared to the control group, suggesting that short comments from doctors may be important in brief interventions for high-risk drinking management in Korean clinical settings.

Summary: This independent study explores the potential processes underlying the effects of individual tailored skills-based telephone training in the HI-FIVES intervention, including topics selected by caregivers, characteristics of created action items, patterns of action or inaction, and barriers to action item completion. The study found that caregivers were more likely to complete action items related to self-care, possibly because they had more control over these items.

Summary: The study aimed to explore the impact of a motivational interviewing intervention customized for statins on adherence to concomitantly used antidiabetic/antihypertensive medications. The intervention did not significantly improve adherence to these medications, while factors such as baseline adherence and age were predictors of adherence.
