INTERNET BASED SMOKING EDUCATION FOR COLLEGE STUDENTS

描述：本应用程序提出了一个交互式的多媒体项目，称为基于互联网的大学生烟草教育。这个名为e-Studentbody.com的项目旨在通过大学和社区学院帮助学生预防或停止吸烟。该项目利用互动技术帮助学生完成戒烟指南中的各个阶段，并建立在线同伴“聊天小组”。该项目还将提供新闻、大学生提交的健康文章、电子邮件功能和一个“阅览室”。第一阶段将包括通过与大学烟草使用者、大学同伴教育者和大学健康教育者的讨论来确定内容和界面。我们希望《大学生活》能够挖掘大学生烟草使用者的主要关注点，如压力、学业压力、同伴和家庭关系、抑郁和体重控制（女性）。我们将开发一个完整的网页、交互式烟草概况问卷和戒烟指南的一个激励反馈部分。这个原型的演示将受到学生可用性测试。对于第二阶段，我们将制作最终的CD-ROM并进行现场测试，与“常规处理”进行比较。如果这样的项目能明显地减少烟草使用或提高戒烟率，就能保证建立一个商业上可行的大学健康网站。

DESCRIPTION: This application proposes development of an interactive, multimedia project called the Internet-Based Tobacco Education for College Students. The program, called e-Studentbody.com, is intended to be offered through universities and community colleges to assist students in preventing or stopping tobacco use. The program utilizes interactive technology to help students move through the stages in a Quitting Guide, as well as develop online peer "chat groups." The program will also offer news, college student-submitted health articles, e-mail features, and a "reading room." Phase I will involve the determination of content and the interface through discussions with college tobacco users, college peer educators, and college health educators. We expect Collegiate Life to tap key concerns for college tobacco users, such as stress, academic pressures, peer and family relationships, depression, and weight control (females). We will develop a completed homepage, interactive tobacco profiling questionnaire, and one motivational feedback segment of the Quitting Guide. A demo of this Prototype will be subjected to a student usability test. For Phase II, we will produce the final CD-ROM and field test it in comparison to "treatment as usual." If such a program demonstrably reduces tobacco use or increases cessation rates, a commercially viable college health website would be assured.
