Limitations
• Self reporting
• Questions regarding future behaviour change does not measure change outcomes
![Page 14: Acc presentation apsad 2012](https://reader037.vdocuments.us/reader037/viewer/2022102813/546ff6b7af7959792e8b48ca/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Summary
• ACC meets an otherwise unmet demand
• Appears to be effective in delivering information about alcohol related harms and strategies for reducing these harms
• May be effective in supporting behaviour change
• Further evaluation is required
