DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Binge drinking by college students is a significant public health problem that results in serious social and health consequences. Members of Greek organizations (i.e., fraternities and sororities) are more likely to binge drink and experience related problems than other students. In addition, fraternity houses are frequently a source of alcohol for other students. An effective approach to reducing binge drinking and related problems is to reduce the availability of alcohol. We propose to develop a training program for Greek leaders that will encourage adoption of alcohol control policies to increase responsible service of alcohol in fraternity houses and reduce availability of alcohol to Greek and other students on campus. We will adapt an existing training program that has been effective in encouraging adoption of similar alcohol control policies in bars and restaurants. Like managers of bars and restaurants, Greek leaders are concerned about law suits and other legal actions, increasing the likelihood that they will be receptive to this type of training program. Ou proposed two-year study will be conducted in two phases with two primary aims: Aim 1. Develop a training program to assist Fraternity members and leaders and school administrators to adopt and implement effective and feasible policies and procedures to reduce alcohol-related risks at Fraternity parties. To accomplish this aim we will conduct qualitative research to identify conditions that may promote overconsumption of alcohol assess perceived barriers/facilitators to adoption of control policies and practices in Fraternity party settings. These findings, plus ou prior experience and input from consultants, will help inform development of gARM, a training that includes policy recommendations, messaging, and tools to facilitate adoption and implementation. Aim 2. Pilot test the gARM training program in preparation for a large-scale randomized trial. We will recruit Fraternities at two intervention and two comparison colleges to test the feasibility and acceptability of the gARM training and obtain estimates of program effects for future evaluation of effectiveness. This research addresses areas of need identified by NIAAA, by colleges and by Greek organizations, and extends findings from several prior studies and pilot work conducted by the Investigators. The study will use innovative methodology and guide new efforts to address college student drinking and related harms.

描述（由申请人提供）：大学生酗酒是一个重大的公共卫生问题，导致严重的社会和健康后果。希腊组织的成员（即，兄弟会和女生联谊会）比其他学生更有可能酗酒和经历相关的问题。此外，兄弟会的房子往往是其他学生的酒精来源。减少酗酒和相关问题的一个有效方法是减少酒精的供应。我们建议为希腊领导人制定一项培训计划，鼓励采取酒精控制政策，以增加兄弟会的酒精负责任服务，并减少希腊和其他学生在校园内的酒精供应。我们将调整现有的培训计划，该计划在鼓励酒吧和餐馆采用类似的酒精控制政策方面一直有效。像 除了酒吧和餐馆的经理外，希腊领导人担心法律诉讼和其他法律的行动，这增加了他们接受这类培训计划的可能性。欧建议的两年研究将分两个阶段进行，有两个主要目标：目标1。制定培训计划，以协助博爱成员和领导人和学校管理人员采取和实施有效和可行的政策和程序，以减少在博爱党酒精相关的风险。为了实现这一目标，我们将进行定性研究，以确定可能促进酒精过度消费的条件，评估在博爱党环境中采取控制政策和做法的感知障碍/促进因素。这些发现，加上我们以前的经验和顾问的投入，将有助于为gARM的发展提供信息，这是一项包括政策建议，信息传递和工具的培训，以促进采用和实施。目标二。对gARM培训计划进行试点测试，为大规模随机试验做准备。我们将招募兄弟会在两个干预和两个比较学院测试的可行性和可接受性的gARM培训，并获得估计方案的效果，为未来的有效性评估。这项研究解决了NIAAA，学院和希腊组织确定的需求领域，并扩展了调查人员进行的几项先前研究和试点工作的结果。这项研究将使用创新的方法，并指导新的努力，以解决大学生饮酒和相关的危害。
