Web-Based DUI Prevention: Intervening at the Worksite

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目将制作一个互动项目，旨在减少酒后驾车的发生率。该计划将在工作场所进行，并可通过互联网或CD-ROM/DVD获得。对于每个用户，该程序将收集人口统计、认知决策和行为信息，然后针对个人定制干预措施。程序用户将被诊断为以下三类之一：(a)“天真的冒险者”(b)“认知冒险者”（非酗酒者）和(c)酗酒者。被诊断为酗酒的员工将被巧妙地引导到专业的治疗资源。项目组成部分将包括教育、视频行为建模、视频推荐、驾驶损伤模拟、虚拟血液酒精计算器以及克服障碍降低风险的策略。它将提供社会支助，并鼓励用户对具体的减少风险战略作出承诺。在第一阶段，将为21-35岁的男性制定诊断和处方性酒后驾驶预防策略。该原型程序将在随机试验中进行评估。在第二阶段，该计划将扩大到四个小组（年轻和年长的男性和女性），并将包括对希望帮助预防酒后驾车行为的“相关人员”的支持和教育。该计划将在一项大规模随机试验中进行评估。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This project will produce an interactive program designed to reduce the incidence of driving under the influence of alcohol (DUI). The program will be worksite-based and available via Internet or CD-ROM/DVD. For each user, the program will gather demographic, cognitive decision-making, and behavioral information, and then customize the intervention to the individual. Program users will be diagnosed into one of three categories: (a)"Naive Risk-Takers," (b)"Cognitive Risk-Takers," (who are non-alcoholics), and (c) alcoholics. Employees diagnosed as alcoholics will be tactfully directed to professional treatment resources. Program components will include education, video behavioral modeling, video testimonials, driving impairment simulations, a virtual blood-alcohol calculator, and strategies to overcome barriers to reducing risk. It will provide social support and encourage user commitments to specific risk-reduction strategies. In Phase I, diagnostic and prescriptive DUI prevention strategies for males 21-35 years old will be developed. This prototype program will be evaluated in a randomized trial. In Phase II, the program will be expanded to target four subgroups (young and older males and females), and it will include support and education for "concerned others" who want to help prevent DUI behavior. The program will be evaluated in a large-scale randomized trial.
