DESCRIPTION: Motor Vehicle Crashes (MVCs) are the most prevalent cause of fatalities among 16 to 20 year olds. High-risk driving offenses (which are frequently related to alcohol use) by adolescents at-risk would appreciably decrease the health risks for this population, as well as reduce the $40 billion negative economic impact of such MVCs. To date, interventions to reduce driving offenses have had a very modest impact on driving offenders in general, and an unknown impact on adolescent drivers. The proposed study is a resubmission of a previous grant submitted to CDC (February 2004) which while receiving an excellent score 180 was criticized on two main points: lack of a randomized control group and the need to measure the driving experience of participants. Both of these issues have been addressed in the current study design. The primary aim of this study is to test whether RYDD (Trauma Room exposure with motivational interviewing) in comparison to PCS (Prototypic Community Service) will: (1) change attitudes towards risky driving behaviors post treatment; (2) reduce alcohol use and high-risk driving behaviors at 6-month follow-up; (3) reduce driving offenses at 12-month follow-up; and (4) reduce the number of MVCs at 24-month follow-up. Court mandated youth (n=500) who have been convicted of a high-risk driving offense are randomly assigned to one of two 16 hour program interventions (RYDD or PCS) and followed for one to two years. Subsequent infractions are measured through a combination of court records and self-report. In order to facilitate the dissemination of the RYDD program, the investigators will determine for whom it works best (Aim 2) and how it works (Aim 3) by examining a number of proposed mediators and moderators. Based on their 4 year pilot program, it is expected that positive results for RYDD would be enthusiastically embraced by state and national leaders within the judicial and traffic safety communities and easily transported and implemented in other courts.

描述：汽车撞车事故（MVC）是16至20岁的死亡人数最普遍的原因。 青少年处于危险中的高风险驾驶犯罪（通常与酒精使用有关）将显着降低该人群的健康风险，并减少此类MVC的400亿美元负面经济影响。 迄今为止，减少驾驶犯罪的干预措施对一般的驾驶罪犯产生了非常适中的影响，并且对青少年驾驶员的影响不明。 拟议的研究是对先前提交给疾病预防控制中心（CDC）的先前赠款的重新提交，该赠款在两个主要要点上受到了批评180的批评：缺乏随机对照组，并且需要衡量参与者的驾驶经验。 这两个问题都在当前的研究设计中解决了。 这项研究的主要目的是测试与PC（原型社区服务）相比，RYDD（具有动机访谈的创伤室暴露）是否将：（1）改变对治疗后风险驾驶行为的态度； （2）在6个月的随访中减少酒精使用和高危驾驶行为； （3）在12个月的随访中减少驾驶犯罪； （4）在24个月的随访中减少MVC的数量。 法院规定的年轻人（n = 500）被判犯有高风险驾驶罪名成立，被随机分配给两个16小时的计划干预措施之一（RYDD或PC），然后遵循一到两年。 随后的违规行为是通过法院记录和自我报告的结合来衡量的。 为了促进RYDD计划的传播，调查人员将通过检查许多建议的调解人和主持人来确定其最佳运作（AIM 2）以及其工作原理（AIM 2）的工作方式（AIM 2）。 根据他们的4年试点计划，预计RYDD的积极成果将受到司法和交通安全社区中的州和国家领导人的热情拥抱，并在其他法院轻松运输和实施。
