ABSTRACT A High School Program for Preventing Prescription Drug Abuse This Fast-Track SBIR proposal is designed to address the critical need for an effective primary prevention approach for prescription drug abuse (PDA), an urgent public health crisis in the United States. Deaths from prescription drug overdoses have more than tripled in the past 15 years, and the abuse of prescription opioids has fueled a dramatic rise in heroin abuse, with 3 of 4 new heroin users reporting a history of misuse of prescription opioids. The peak ages for PDA in the U.S. are 18 to 25. Thus, effectively preventing PDA in adolescents is central to reducing further increases in morbidity and mortality. Research demonstrates that alcohol, marijuana, and other forms of substance abuse typically co-occur with PDA and share similar risk and protective factors. School-based prevention provides access to large numbers of youth, but new program implementation modalities are needed because there is less time available for classroom-based prevention than in years past. Thus, there is a need for prevention programs that address the risk and protective factors unique to PDA, are broad-based in nature so that they address the risk and protective factors common to substance abuse and related problem behaviors, incorporate best practices in effective substance abuse prevention, and take advantage of new technologies to enhance classroom-based sessions. In the proposed project, we will develop and test an adaptation of the evidence-based substance abuse prevention approach called Life Skills Training (LST). The LST program has been extensively tested and found to effectively prevent substance abuse, violence and aggression in a series of randomized controlled trials with behavioral effects reported in over 30 peer-reviewed publications. The proposed preventive intervention for high school PDA will (1) utilize both online e-learning modules and interactive classroom sessions to address PDA and concurrent alcohol/drug abuse; (2) positively change social norms surrounding PDA and alcohol/drug abuse; (3) challenge positive expectancies about the benefits of PDA; (4) discourage diversion of prescription medication; (5) enhance protective factors by building social, self-regulation, and relationship skills through interactive learning and behavioral rehearsal scenarios; and (6) include online booster sessions. In Phase I, we will focus group test prototype materials with high school students, teachers, and administrators to demonstrate feasibility, relevance, usefulness, and appeal. Materials will be revised based on focus group feedback. In Phase II we will fully develop the program materials and conduct a rigorous national randomized trial of the prevention program. High schools (N=30) will be randomized into either an intervention group that receives the intervention or a treatment-as-usual control group that receives existing school health education programming. At the end of the initial intervention period, and at one- and two-year follow-ups, we will compare both groups with respect to changes in behaviors, norms, attitudes, and knowledge regarding PDA and other forms of substance abuse. This research offers the potential to identify an innovative and engaging prevention program capable of reducing PDA and other drug abuse.

摘要 预防处方药滥用的高中计划 此快速通道SBIR提案旨在满足有效初级预防的迫切需求 针对处方药滥用(PDA)的方法，这是美国一项紧迫的公共健康危机。因以下原因死亡 在过去的15年里，处方药过量增加了两倍多，处方阿片类药物的滥用 助长了海洛因滥用的戏剧性上升，四分之三的新吸毒者报告有滥用海洛因的历史 处方类阿片。在美国，PDA的高峰期是18岁到25岁。因此，有效地防止了PDA在 青少年是减少发病率和死亡率进一步增加的核心。研究表明， 酒精、大麻和其他形式的药物滥用通常与PDA并存，并具有类似的风险和 保护性因素。以学校为基础的预防提供了接触大量青年的机会，但这是一个新的计划 需要实施模式，因为可用于基于课堂的预防的时间少于 在过去的岁月里。因此，需要针对独特的风险和保护因素的预防方案 对于个人数字助理，本质上是广泛的，因此它们解决了物质共同的风险和保护因素 滥用和相关问题行为，纳入有效预防药物滥用的最佳做法，以及 利用新技术加强课堂教学。在拟议的项目中，我们将 开发和测试基于证据的物质滥用预防方法的改编，称为生活技能 培训(LST)。LST计划已经过广泛的测试，发现可以有效地防止药物滥用， 在一系列随机对照试验中的暴力和攻击性，其行为影响在30多个报告中 同行评议的出版物。建议的对高中PDA的预防干预将：(1)在线利用这两种方法 电子学习单元和互动课堂课程，以解决掌上电脑和同时酗酒/吸毒问题；(2) 积极改变有关PDA和酗酒/吸毒的社会规范；(3)挑战积极预期 有关掌上电脑的好处；。(4)防止处方药物被转用；。(5)加强保护因素。 通过互动学习和行为演练培养社交、自我调节和人际关系技能 情景；和(6)包括在线助推器会议。在第一阶段，我们将重点小组测试原型材料 向高中生、教师和管理人员展示可行性、相关性、有用性和吸引力。 材料将根据焦点小组的反馈进行修改。在第二阶段，我们将全面开发计划材料 并对预防方案进行严格的全国随机试验。高中(N=30)将是 随机分为接受干预的干预组或照常治疗的对照组 接受现有学校健康教育规划的学校。在初始干预期结束时，以及在 一年和两年的随访，我们将比较两组在行为、规范、 对PDA和其他形式的药物滥用的态度和知识。这项研究提供了潜在的 确定能够减少PDA和其他药物滥用的创新和引人入胜的预防计划。
