干预研究对于帮助西班牙裔美国青少年避免吸毒至关重要。本文介绍了一项旨在预防这些青少年吸毒的干预研究计划。以突出的流行病学数据为基础,该计划由双文化能力,社会学习和动机访谈理论提供信息。这个名为Vamos的项目旨在消除风险和保护因素,以及区分西班牙裔美国青年青少年的文化特权。该计划在方法上具有创新性,通过智能手机应用程序(app)提供。通过与通过应用程序呈现的引人入胜的内容进行互动,青少年可以获得必要的认知行为技能,以避免与早期吸毒相关的危险情况,冲动和压力。详细介绍了干预开发过程,并概述了评估计划,以确定该计划的有效性。实践和干预方案的经验教训进行了讨论。
Intervention research is essential to help Hispanic American adolescents avoid drug use. This article describes an intervention research program aimed at preventing drug use among these youths. Grounded in salient epidemiological data, the program is informed by bicultural competence, social learning, and motivational interviewing theories. The program, called Vamos, is aimed at the risk and protective factors as well as the cultural prerogatives that demark the adolescent years of Hispanic American youths. Innovative in its approach, the program is delivered through a smartphone application (app). By interacting with engaging content presented via the app, youths can acquire the cognitive–behavioral skills necessary to avoid risky situations, urges, and pressures associated with early drug use. The intervention development process is presented in detail, and an evaluation plan to determine the program's efficacy is outlined. Lessons for practice and intervention programming are discussed.
