DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The present study is a continuation and further development of a novel program of research designed to reduce the onset and extent of drinking by students during their first year of college, through provision of efficacious individually oriented interventions prior to college entrance. We aim to influence the drinking behavior of college-bound high school athletes during the spring of their senior year of high school, by enhancing the influence of their parents and/or by introducing them to college student athletes who will serve as peer counselors to provide a brief motivational feedback intervention. Athletes represent a high-risk and understudied group, and existing research indicates high school athletes drink as much as or more than other students. Research also indicates that for many students, excessive drinking in college is a continuation or exacerbation of high-school drinking tendencies. However, almost all current approaches in the college-drinking domain are based on implementing interventions while the students are at college. Further, there have been no theory-driven, systematic interventions targeting high school athletes so as to prevent alcohol misuse as they transition to college. We intend to implement two early interventions for high school student athletes: (1) a Parent-Based Intervention (PBI) based on the work of Turrisi and colleagues and (2) a Brief Peer-delivered Motivational Intervention (BPMI) based on the work of Larimer and colleagues. There is sufficient empirical evidence demonstrating the efficacy of these interventions in college and older adolescent samples to warrant an examination of their unique and combined additive effects for a high-risk high school athlete sample. The integration of these two research programs will provide a unique theoretical framework and a rich database from which to assess the benefits of parent and peer-delivered intervention approaches at this late stage of adolescent development. Thus, the research will investigate, through the use of a factorial design, the unique and combined utility of the PBI and the BPMI to reduce alcohol onset, usage and negative consequences among high school athletes so as to ultimately reduce college student drinking; identify demographic and psychological characteristics of high school athletes for whom the interventions are more effective versus those for whom the interventions are relatively ineffective; and examine processes by which the interventions influence use and negative consequences for students.

描述（由申请人提供）：本研究是一个新颖研究项目的延续和进一步发展，旨在通过在大学入学前提供有效的个人导向干预，减少学生在大学一年级期间饮酒的发生和程度。我们的目标是影响即将进入大学的高中运动员在高中四年级春季的饮酒行为，通过加强他们父母的影响和/或通过向他们介绍大学生运动员，他们将作为同伴顾问提供简短的动机反馈干预。运动员是一个高风险且未被充分研究的群体，现有的研究表明，高中运动员的饮酒量与其他学生一样多，甚至更多。研究还表明，对许多学生来说，大学期间的过度饮酒是高中饮酒倾向的延续或加剧。然而，目前几乎所有的大学饮酒领域的方法都是基于在学生在校期间实施干预措施。此外，还没有针对高中运动员的理论驱动的系统干预措施，以防止他们在过渡到大学时滥用酒精。我们打算对高中生运动员实施两种早期干预：(1)基于Turrisi和同事工作的基于父母的干预（PBI）和(2)基于作者的工作的简短同伴传递动机干预（BPMI）
