Preventing sexual aggression among high school boys

 描述(由申请人提供)摘要本研究通过严格评估两个针对不同管理方法的高中男生的理论驱动的、多节课的性侵犯预防计划来推进性侵犯预防科学研究：(1)你的声音你的观点，由疾控中心RPE资助机构罗德岛第一天在罗德岛高中开发和目前管理；(2)高中研讨会，改编自男性研讨会，以前由该研究小组的成员在大学男生中进行评估。我们对疗效研究的方法不仅严谨，而且新颖；这表明，知名研究人员和社区机构之间的互利合作伙伴关系如何通过增强社区机构进行严格项目评估的能力，以及丰富研究人员开发在实验室之外可持续的干预措施的能力，来推进性侵犯预防的科学。在改进和规划阶段，我们将通过线人访谈、焦点小组、利益相关者访谈、建立研究咨询委员会和管理一个小型公开试点试验来完善计划手册。还将进行一项在线调查，以收集社会规范数据，并对高中讲习班进行调整，使其在高中环境中可行和可持续。为了在本研究设计的背景下始终如一地管理您的声音您的观点，将进一步将该计划手册化，将编制培训手册，并将制定评估计划管理忠诚度的措施(即，遵守/能力衡量标准)。在干预阶段，我们将进行一项随机对照试验，样本为1200名10年级男孩，以证明每个干预措施相对于剂量和注意力匹配的一般健康促进对照组在6个月的随访期内在减少性攻击、约会暴力介入和相关风险/保护因素方面的有效性。至少有六所学校将根据人口统计特征(即接受补贴午餐的百分比、种族/少数民族入学人数)进行匹配，然后随机接受您的声音您的意见(N=400)、高中工作坊(N=400)或一般健康促进(N=400)。在分析和传播阶段，我们将进行额外的利益相关者访谈(N=12)，分析研究数据，进行成本效益分析，编写项目报告，并与学校以及当地和国家科学界分享研究结果。通过解决以社区为基础的预防计划(即缺乏严格的评估)和以研究为基础的预防计划(即缺乏现实适用性)的弱点，将这两个计划与剂量和注意力匹配的控制组进行比较，并对两种干预措施的不同效果进行初步检查，本研究的结果将为预防高中男生性侵犯的证据基础做出重大贡献。开展这项研究为社区机构和研究小组提供的知识、基础设施和经验也将提高双方在今后的性侵犯预防工作中更有效地将研究和实践结合起来的能力。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): ABSTRACT The present research advances the science of sexual assault prevention research by rigorously evaluating two theoretically-driven, multi-session sexual assault prevention programs for high school boys with different administration approaches: (1) Your Voice Your View, developed and currently administered in Rhode Island high schools by the CDC RPE-funded agency Day One of Rhode Island; and (2) The High School Workshop, adapted from the Men's Workshop, which was previously evaluated among college men by members of this research team. Our approach to this efficacy research is not only rigorous, but also novel; exemplifying how mutually beneficial partnerships between well-established researchers and community agencies advance the science of sexual assault prevention by enhancing the capacity of community agencies to conduct rigorous program evaluations and enriching the ability of researchers to develop interventions that are sustainable outside of a laboratory setting. In the Refinement and Planning Phase, we will refine the program manuals through informant interviews, focus groups, stakeholder interviews, establishment of a Research Advisory Board, and administration of a small open pilot trial. An online survey will also be conducted to gather social norms data, and The High School Workshop will be adapted to be feasible and sustainable in a high school setting. In order to consistently administer Your Voice Your View in the context of this research design, the program will be further manualized, training manuals will be produced, and measures assessing the fidelity of program administration (i.e., adherence/competence measures) will be developed. In the Intervention Phase, we will conduct a randomized controlled trial with a sample of 1200 10th grade boys to demonstrate efficacy of each intervention in reducing rates of sexual aggression, dating violence involvement, and related risk/protective factors over a 6-month follow-up relative to a dose- and attention-matched General Health Promotion control group. At least six schools will be matched on demographic characteristics (i.e., % receiving subsidized lunch, racial/ethnic minority enrollment) then randomized to receive Your Voice Your View (N = 400), the High School Workshop (N = 400), or General Health Promotion (N = 400). In the Analysis and Dissemination Phase, we will conduct additional stakeholder interviews (N = 12), analyze study data, conduct cost-effectiveness analyses, prepare project reports, and share study findings with the schools as well as the local and national scientific communities. By addressing the weaknesses of both the community-based prevention program (i.e., lacking rigorous evaluation) and the research-based prevention program (i.e., lacking real-world applicability), testing both programs in comparison to a dose-and attention-matched control group, and conducting a preliminary examination of the differential efficacy of the two interventions, the results of this research will make a significant contribution to the evidence base for preventing sexual aggression among high school boys. The knowledge, infrastructure and experience provided to the community agency and research team as a result of conducting the present research will also enhance the capacities of both parties to more effectively integrate research and practice in future sexual assault prevention work.
