在学院和大学的霍尔斯，居民助理（RA）预计将作为急救提供者，以学生谁可能有酒精，其他药物，心理健康和学术问题。尽管有这一责任，基于证据的急救计划尚未开发和测试的RA劳动力。目前的研究检查了专门为RA设计的研究性急救计划的效果。在线同伴英雄培训计划是一种新颖的方法，RA培训使用互动视频戏剧化的事件，涉及物质使用或痛苦的居民。一项在美国8所大学进行的为期9个月的随机试验比较了参加同伴英雄培训计划的RA和接受常规培训的RA。参与同伴英雄培训计划显着增加了RA急救努力的住宿学生谁可能有酒精，其他药物，心理健康，或基线后6个月的学术问题。与那些在正常训练条件下的人相比，同伴英雄训练计划中的RA对可能的酒精问题进行了10倍以上的急救，对可能的药物使用进行急救的次数几乎是14倍，对可能的心理健康问题进行急救的次数几乎是3倍，对学业问题进行急救的次数是3倍。没有证据表明，测量RA的态度介导的干预效果。初步评估试验的结果表明，使用互动视频戏剧化的在线培训是一种可行的方法，以加强RA的能力，提供酒精，其他药物，和心理健康的急救本科生。
In college and university residence halls, resident assistants (RAs) are expected to serve as first-aid providers to students who may have alcohol, other drug, mental health, and academic problems. Despite this responsibility, evidence-based, first-aid programs have not been developed and tested for the RA workforce. The current study examined effects of an investigational first-aid program designed specifically for RAs. The online Peer Hero Training program is a novel approach to RA training in its use of interactive video dramatizations of incidents involving substance-using or distressed residents. A 9-month randomized trial conducted on 8 U.S. campuses compared RAs who participated in the Peer Hero Training program to RAs who received training-as-usual. Participation in the Peer Hero Training program significantly increased RA first-aid efforts for residential students who may have had alcohol, other drug, mental health, or academic problems six months after baseline. Compared to those in the training-as-usual condition, RAs in the Peer Hero Training program made more than 10 times as many first-aid efforts for possible alcohol problems, almost 14 times the number of first-aid efforts for possible drug use, almost 3 times the number of first-aid efforts for possible mental health problems, and 3 times the number of first-aid efforts for academic problems. There was no evidence that measured RA attitudes mediated the effects of the intervention. Results of this preliminary evaluation trial suggest that online training using interactive video dramatizations is a viable approach to strengthening RAs’ ability to provide alcohol, other drug, and mental health first-aid to undergraduates.
