One hundred and twenty samples selected by convenience sampling were given ASTP for four weeks after assessing their preintervention knowledge and drinking frequency. The results on post intervention knowledge and drinking frequency showed significant improvement (P =0.001) on their knowledge and significant reduction (P = 0.001) in their drinking frequency. The percentage difference of 31.3% in knowledge score with 95% confidence interval revealed the effectiveness of ASTP. The above findings revealed structural approaches to alcohol consumption.
