| BASICS BASICS-style motivational interviewing screening interventions are utilized in partial fulfilment of student sanctions for mid-level to elevated alcohol policy violations, and a similar format is utilized for brief motivational interviewing screenings for marijuana. These interventions include an initial 90-minute session that establishes rapport and gathers information about intensity and frequency of use, negative consequences, family history, and the client’s support network. This session is followed by a paper-pencil assessment that includes a bundle of screening instruments that are scored, and the results are interpreted with the student during the second 90-minute session that focuses on goals and risk reduction in the future.
