Abstract
We conducted a longitudinal meta-analysis examining how initial levels of meaning in life affect positive and negative outcomes for individuals with Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD). Results show a negative association between meaning and relapse, indicating that increased meaning leads to better outcomes for individuals who suffer from AUD.
