Note. N = 115. 95% confidence interval given for difference of the 9-month versus intake binary measures, Cohen’s d given for difference of the 9-month versus intake continuous and proportion measures. PDAA = Proportion days abstinent from alcohol in 90-day window; DPDD = Drinks per drinking day in a 90-day window (abstinent days not in the denominator); GAATOR = General Alcoholics Anonymous Tools of Recovery Scale, total score.
