很少有年轻人采取减少发病和过早死亡风险的行为，如健康饮食、积极锻炼身体、合理饮酒和不吸烟。本研究开发了一种在线干预，以针对从学校到大学的重要生活转变期间的健康行为，因为健康信念和行为可能更容易改变。本文介绍了干预措施及其评价方法。潜在的参与者（所有即将进入谢菲尔德大学的本科生）将在开学前两周通过电子邮件发送一份在线问卷。在完成调查问卷后，受访者将被随机分配接受在线健康行为干预（U@Uni）或控制条件。干预采用三种行为改变技术（自我肯定、基于理论的信息和实施意图）来针对四种健康行为（饮酒、体育活动、水果和蔬菜摄入和吸烟）。随后，所有参与者将在大学入学后大约一个月和六个月左右通过电子邮件发送后续问卷。问卷将评估四种目标行为和相关认知（如意图、自我效能），以及社会人口变量、健康状况、身体质量指数（BMI）、卫生服务使用和娱乐性药物使用。参与者的子样本将提供头发样本，以评估健康行为的生化标志物的变化。还将对干预措施的成本效益进行卫生经济评价。研究结果将为在线干预的有效性以及在重大生活转变期间（如从学校到大学）进行干预的潜力提供证据。如果成功的话，这种干预可以被其他大学采用，以促进新生的健康行为。当前对照试验，ISRCTN67684181。
Too few young people engage in behaviors that reduce the risk of morbidity and premature mortality, such as eating healthily, being physically active, drinking sensibly and not smoking. The present research developed an online intervention to target these health behaviors during the significant life transition from school to university when health beliefs and behaviors may be more open to change. This paper describes the intervention and the proposed approach to its evaluation. Potential participants (all undergraduates about to enter the University of Sheffield) will be emailed an online questionnaire two weeks before starting university. On completion of the questionnaire, respondents will be randomly assigned to receive either an online health behavior intervention (U@Uni) or a control condition. The intervention employs three behavior change techniques (self-affirmation, theory-based messages, and implementation intentions) to target four heath behaviors (alcohol consumption, physical activity, fruit and vegetable intake, and smoking). Subsequently, all participants will be emailed follow-up questionnaires approximately one and six months after starting university. The questionnaires will assess the four targeted behaviors and associated cognitions (e.g., intentions, self-efficacy) as well as socio-demographic variables, health status, Body Mass Index (BMI), health service use and recreational drug use. A sub-sample of participants will provide a sample of hair to assess changes in biochemical markers of health behavior. A health economic evaluation of the cost effectiveness of the intervention will also be conducted. The findings will provide evidence on the effectiveness of online interventions as well as the potential for intervening during significant life transitions, such as the move from school to university. If successful, the intervention could be employed at other universities to promote healthy behaviors among new undergraduates. Current Controlled Trials, ISRCTN67684181.
