DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application proposes to build on the successful Phase I Picture Me Alcohol Free (PMAF) feasibility pilot study. PMAF is a community-based program designed to train groups of youth to a) represent contributing factors and consequences (e.g., social availability, alcohol-involved crashes) of underage drinking in their communities through a specific photographic technique called photovoice, and b) use photo projects to raise community awareness and motivate community-level change. Underage drinking continues to be serious public health concern in this country. This is reflected in the recent Call to Action by the U.S. Surgeon General's Office (2007) which places an emphasis on youth involvement in community-wide prevention. However, there are few, if any, commercially available tools that can be used by communities to train and support youth in community-based prevention. The proposed project will fill that need by using existing research and instructional technology to develop an innovative online training program that will guide youth, with the help of an adult facilitator, through the photovoice process in attempt to raise community awareness and motivate alcohol-related environmental and policy changes. Phase II aims include completion of the full PMAF program and evaluation of the program using a pair- matched group randomized design. Thirty SADD (Students against Destructive Decisions) groups will be randomly assigned to treatment (PMAF) or standard practice control conditions. Outcomes include media coverage, public events, advocacy activities, and education.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请旨在建立在成功的第一阶段无酒精（PMAF）可行性试点研究的基础上。PMAF是一个以社区为基础的计划，旨在培训青年群体a）代表促成因素和后果（例如，社会供应情况、涉及酒精的撞车事故），以及B）利用照片项目提高社区意识和推动社区一级的变革。未成年人饮酒仍然是这个国家严重的公共卫生问题。这反映在美国卫生局局长办公室最近的《行动呼吁》（2007年）中，其中强调青年参与全社区的预防工作。然而，社区可用来培训和支持青年进行社区预防的商业工具很少，如果有的话。拟议的项目将通过利用现有的研究和教学技术来满足这一需求，以开发一个创新的在线培训计划，该计划将在成人主持人的帮助下，通过photovoice过程指导青年，以提高社区意识，并激励与酒精有关的环境和政策变化。第二阶段的目标包括完成完整的PMAF计划并使用配对组随机设计对该计划进行评估。30个SADD（学生反对破坏性决定）组将被随机分配到治疗（PMAF）或标准实践控制条件。成果包括媒体报道、公共活动、宣传活动和教育。
