Underage alcohol use and dating abuse perpetration

未成年人饮酒和青少年约会虐待是重大的相关公共卫生问题。这个 饮酒频率是青少年约会虐待行为的最强相关因素之一。 关于调节酒精使用和滥用行为之间关系的机制的信息 还需要对高危青年采取具有成本效益的干预措施。 综合职业发展计划将为候选人成为一名独立的 在未成年人饮酒和约会虐待行为方面具有专业知识的调查员。会的 提供以下方面的培训和经验：(A)酒精研究；(B)青少年心理学；(C)翻译研究 方法，(D)结构方程模型，和(E)人体受试者。K01研究计划包括 三项相关研究。通过研究1，候选人将开发和测试概念模型 青少年饮酒行为与约会虐待行为的关系 城市急诊科。通过研究2，候选人将开发和测试内容效度 基于紧急部门的短暂干预，将解决约会虐待行为、未成年人 酒精的使用及其共生现象。通过研究3，候选人将试行可行性和 使用不同种族样本的随机对照试验中干预措施的可接受性。 这项拟议的研究将由NIAAA资助的青少年酒精预防项目的资源提供支持 在候选人所在的机构中心。它将做出几项重要贡献。首先，有一个 缺乏关于少数民族和非大学青少年中未成年饮酒的研究。这个 拟议的研究将利用以非白人为主的青少年样本，并提高比率 辍学的学生。第二，未成年人饮酒与约会虐待行为之间的相关性 需要解释清楚。拟议中的研究将测试一个概念模型，该模型将产生这些信息。 最后，迫切需要为约会虐待的肇事者制定有效的干预措施。这个 拟议的研究将开发和测试以急诊科为基础的短暂干预。 相关性(请参阅说明)： 减少未成年人饮酒是NIAAA战略计划的一个组成部分。虽然饮酒的频率 吸毒是约会虐待行为的最强关联之一，未成年饮酒与 对约会虐待行为的研究仍然很少。拟议的研究将阐明这种关系，并 测试一次简短的干预以解决这两个问题。职业生涯规划将为应聘者做好准备 与未成年人饮酒和约会虐待行为交叉相关的独立调查

Underage drinking and adolescent dating abuse are significant and related public health problems. The frequency of alcohol use is one of the strongest correlates of adolescent dating abuse perpetration. Information about the mechanisms that mediate the relationship between alcohol use and abuse perpetration is needed, as are cost-effective interventions with high-risk youth. The integrated career development plan will prepare the candidate to become an independent investigator with expertise in the intersection of underage alcohol use and dating abuse perpetration. It will provide training and experience in (a) alcohol research, (b) adolescent psychology, (c) translational research methods, (d) structural equation modeling, and (e) human subjects. The K01 research plan is comprised of three related studies. Through Study 1 the candidate will develop and test a conceptual model of the relationship between underage alcohol use and dating abuse perpetration among adolescents who utilize an urban emergency department. Through Study 2 the candidate will develop and test the content validity of an emergency department-based brief intervention that will address dating abuse perpetration, underage alcohol use and their co-occurence. Through Study 3 the candidate will pilot test the feasibility and acceptability of the intervention in a randomized controlled trial using a racially diverse sample. The proposed research will be supported by the resources of the NIAAA-funded Youth Alcohol Prevention Center at the candidate's institution. It stands to make several important contributions. First, there is a dearth of research on underage drinking among racial minority and non-college-bound adolescents. The proposed research will utilize a sample of adolescents who are primarily non-White and with an elevated rate of school drop-out. Second, the correlation between underage alcohol use and dating abuse perpetration needs explication. The proposed research will test a conceptual model that will yield this information. Finally, there is an urgent need to develop effective interventions for perpetrators of dating abuse. The proposed research will develop and test an emergency department-based brief intervention. RELEVANCE (See instructions): Reducing underage drinking is a component of the NIAAA strategic plan. Although the frequency of alcohol use is one of the strongest correlates of dating abuse perpetration, how underage drinking is related to dating abuse perpetration remains understudied. The proposed research will explicate this relationship and test a brief intervention to address both issues. The career plan will prepare the candidate to undertake independent investigations related to the intersection of underage alcohol use and dating abuse perpetration
