The post Free Talk Group Motivational Interviewing (MI) for Teens was curated by information for practice.

There's a lot of advice out there on how to get job interviews right, whether you're the one trying to get hired or the one evaluating the candidates. But the dos and don'ts aren't always applicable to every person. In fact, author Anna Papalia thinks we're better served by understanding and leveraging our own natural interviewing style. Having spent years as a corporate recruiter, organizational consultant, and coach to students and professions, she's conducted thousands of real and mock interviews and noticed that people tend to fall into one of four categories: charmer, examiner, challenger, or harmonizer.  She outlines the strengths and weaknesses of each and explains how this framework can help us get better from both sides of the desks.

Youth violence and alcohol misuse are a preventable public health problem. Previous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of brief interventions in the emergency department (ED) in reducing alcohol misuse and related consequences among older adolescents and adults.

This study supports the efficacy of brief interventions in the ED in reducing peer aggression and victimization 12 months after ED visit. The previous reductions in alcohol consequences noted at 6 months follow-up were not sustained at 12 months. (Read the full article)

Obesity and overweight can seriously affect health outcomes. Many obesity prevention interventions have been proposed, but few have been effective. Motivational interviewing in primary care seems promising, but results in BMI control are controversial and require further investigation.

This is the first study to demonstrate the effectiveness of pediatrician-led motivational interviewing for BMI control in overweight children aged 4 to 7 years. Nevertheless, no effect was observed in boys or when the mother’s education level was low. (Read the full article)

Motivational interviewing (MI) has been found to increase the effectiveness of weight loss programs in obese children and adolescents. Although parental involvement seems to be linked to its effectiveness, strong conclusions cannot be drawn.
