Abstract: This study sought to investigate the relative efficacy of Multimodal aversion therapy on alcohol dependence behavior of College of Education students. The study used experimental research design involving randomized experimental and control groups. The population for the study consisted of 2,150 NCE 1 (100level (Nigeria Certificate in Education) students of the college. However, the target population was those identified with alcohol drinking dependent behavior. A sample of 42 NCE 1(100level) students constituted the subjects for the study. Both stratified and simple random sampling were adopted for selecting the sample, taking into cognizance, the students’ schools, departments and gender. Two instruments Alcohol Drinking Dependence Questionnaire (ADDQ) and Drinking History Questionnaire (DHQ) were used for data collection. Both instruments were validated by expert judgment and had reliability co-efficient of 0.73 and. 0.76 respectively. The data collected were analyzed by using both descriptive and inferential statistics to answer the research questions and test the postulated hypothesis respectively. The result indicated that the prevalence of alcohol drinking among FCT College of Education students was on the average. It also revealed that multimodal aversion therapy was effective in the cessation of alcohol drinking dependence behavior of both male and female students. Multimodal aversion therapy was recommended for both psychologists and Guidance Counselors for the modification of alcohol drinking behavior and abuse of drugs among students.
