PROJECT SUMMARY Young adult men and women perpetrate intimate partner violence (IPV) at high rates. A summary of over 30 years of research concludes that alcohol is a causal factor of IPV, particularly acute alcohol intoxication, highlighting the critical need for interventions delivered proximally to drinking episodes – a period of increased risk for IPV. Yet despite the high societal and personal costs associated with heavy drinking and IPV and the high prevalence of alcohol facilitated IPV, empirically supported interventions are lacking, particularly those that are low resource and easily scalable for wide dissemination. It is increasingly feasible to deliver Just-In- Time (JIT) interventions via mobile technology, particularly those that adapt over time to an individual's changing needs to provide appropriate intervention strategies based on real time, real world context – Just-In- Time Adaptive Interventions (JITAIs). JITAIs have been evaluated for a range of behavioral health issues including alcohol use; however, no empirically supported JITAIs for alcohol-facilitated IPV perpetration exist. To develop JITAIs, JIT interventions are optimized through innovative micro-randomized trials (MRTs) in which individuals are micro-randomized to receive different intervention strategies at critical time points to determine when a message is best delivered, which type of message is most impactful for whom, and under what conditions. Thus, the present application will combine a traditional RCT to evaluate the efficacy of delivering JIT messages to reduce alcohol facilitated IPV perpetration with a MRT to optimize the selection and adaptation of messages for a future JITAI. The proposed intervention focuses on theoretically and empirically supported targets for IPV perpetration consistent with the I3 Model – the prevailing unifying theory of IPV perpetration – including distress tolerance skills, emotion regulation skills, and alcohol reduction strategies. An RCT by the PI (K08AA021745) supports these intervention targets for reducing alcohol use and IPV perpetration among women with sexual assault histories, and a recent pilot study supports the feasibility and acceptability of delivering these JIT messages using a MRT design to at-risk men and women with good effects of the intervention on key alcohol and IPV outcomes. As such, we propose to evaluate the efficacy of this JIT messaging intervention in 400 heavy drinking young adults with recent IPV perpetration. Participants will be randomized to the JIT messaging intervention or an assessment only control (RCT design). All participants will complete a baseline survey, 30-days of twice daily monitoring, and 1-, 3-, and 6-month follow- up surveys. Within the intervention arm (MRT design), individuals will be micro-randomized after each morning and evening report during the 30 days of monitoring to (1) receive a JIT message or not, and (2) if yes, to one of three message types (distress tolerance skill, ER skill, alcohol reduction strategy). This innovative design will optimize the selection and adaptation of JIT messages for a future JITAI to reduce alcohol facilitated IPV.

项目摘要 年轻成年男子和妇女实施亲密伴侣暴力的比率很高。30多个总结 多年的研究得出结论，酒精是IPV的致病因素，特别是急性酒精中毒， 强调迫切需要在饮酒事件附近提供干预措施-这是一个增加的时期， IPV的风险然而，尽管与大量饮酒和IPV以及 酒精促进IPV的高流行率，缺乏经验支持的干预措施，特别是那些 这是一种资源少、易于扩展以广泛传播方法。越来越多的人认为，在... 通过移动的技术进行的时间（JIT）干预，特别是那些随着时间的推移而适应个人需求的干预。 不断变化的需求，以提供基于真实的时间、真实的世界背景的适当干预策略-- 时间适应性干预（JITAIs）。JITAIs已被评估为一系列行为健康问题 包括酒精的使用;然而，没有经验支持的JITAI酒精促进IPV犯罪存在。 为了开发JITAI，通过创新的微随机试验（MRT）优化JIT干预措施，其中 个体被微随机化以在关键时间点接受不同的干预策略， 当一个消息是最好的传递，哪种类型的消息是最有影响力的人，并根据什么 条件因此，本申请将联合收割机与传统的随机对照试验相结合，以评估递送 JIT消息，以减少酒精促进IPV犯下与MRT，以优化选择， 为未来的JITAI调整消息。建议的干预措施侧重于理论和经验 支持IPV犯罪的目标与I3模型一致-IPV的流行统一理论 犯罪-包括痛苦容忍技能，情绪调节技能和减少酒精的策略。一个 PI的RCT（K 08 AA 021745）支持这些减少饮酒和IPV的干预目标 有性侵犯历史的妇女中的犯罪行为，最近的一项试点研究支持的可行性， 使用MRT设计将这些JIT信息传递给风险男性和女性的可接受性， 干预对关键酒精和IPV结果的影响。因此，我们建议评估 在400名最近有IPV犯罪的重度饮酒年轻人中进行JIT信息干预。参与者 将被随机分配至JIT消息传递干预组或仅评估对照组（RCT设计）。所有 参与者将完成基线调查，30天的每日两次监测，以及1个月、3个月和6个月的随访- 向上调查。在干预组（MRT设计）中，每天早晨后对个体进行微随机化 在30天的监测期间，（1）是否收到JIT消息，以及（2）如果收到， 三种信息类型（痛苦容忍技能，ER技能，酒精减少策略）。这一创新设计将 优化JIT消息的选择和适应，以减少未来的JITAI酒精促进IPV。
