在一项社区随机对照试验中，来自小镇的干预中学生接受了基于社区和学校的反暴力干预（“解决它，解决它”）。主要干预措施是媒体宣传活动，当地高中生在印刷品、广播和电视公益广告中担任模特，并带头开展当地学校和社区活动。媒体活动得到了学校和社区活动的支持，这些活动强化了活动信息。识别和回忆测试表明，媒体干预广泛存在。多组潜在成长模型表明，相对于对照学生，干预学生在暴力意图、人身攻击、言语受害和学校安全感的增长速度上存在显着差异。在言语攻击、对物体的身体攻击、身体伤害或避免暴力的自我效能方面没有发现差异。按性别进行检查后发现，仅在女学生中获得了人身攻击的结果，并且仅在男学生中观察到了言语受害和感知学校安全的变化。这些结果表明，由年长同龄人主导的媒体和加强社区干预可以改变小镇青年中某些暴力措施和相关因素的增长率。进一步的研究表明不同的竞选信息如何影响不同性别的学生。
In a community randomized controlled trial, intervention middle school students from small towns were exposed to a community and school-based anti-violence intervention (“Resolve It, Solve It”). The primary intervention was a media campaign in which local high school students served as models in print, radio, and television PSAs and spearheaded local school and community activities. The media campaign was supported with school and community events that reinforced campaign messages. Tests of recognition and recall indicated widespread exposure to the media intervention. Multiple group latent growth models indicated that relative to control students, intervention students reported significant differences in rates of growth for intent for violence, physical assault against people, verbal victimization, and perceived safety at school. No differences were found for verbal assault, physical assault against objects, physical victimization, or self-efficacy for avoiding violence. When examined by sex, it was determined that results for physical assault against people were obtained only among female students, and changes in verbal victimization and perceived school safety were observed only among male students. These results suggest that a media and reinforcing community intervention led by older peers can alter rates of growth for some measures of violence and associated factors among small-town youth. Further research is indicated to determine how different campaign messages influence students by sex.
