The model is a spiritual one

As palmersc pointed out, this model is used on everyone who gets in trouble with the police for alcohol or alcohol related crimes, regardless of whether they are spiritual or non-spiritual. How is a naturalist, skeptic, empiricist, atheist, existentialist, agnostic, etc supposed to rely on a power outside of her/himself (without compromising their beliefs)?

The higher numbers of people who drank to excess does not attribute causality to group membership. It more likely concerns more rabidly addictive individuals desparately grasping help whilst they drown in their disease.

Although I cannot claim to be certain of this, I think the A.A. group and the control group may have been matched.

I don't know what your experience is with addicted individuals, but I've been working in the field for over 20 years.

I'm just a student.

Studies that you yourself have not created (who is University Park Press anyway, and to monopolize accuracy for what, your argument?) do not bolster your argument.

I'm not sure why I have to conduct a clinical trial in order to use it as evidence or what you mean by "monopolize accuracy." Again, I don't remember all of the details of the study, but I think the University Park Press is an academic journal based in the University of Baltimore.
