Alcohol Research Collabortive: Peer Programs

描述（由申请人提供）：目前研究的目的是减少酒精使用和相关的负面健康，社会和法律的后果在大学生的高危人群。旨在对抗同龄人和规范性影响饮酒的干预措施，以及预期挑战，降低风险和动机增强，已经显示出大学人群有效性的证据。较少被称为不同的实施策略，包括网络或自助期刊格式，团体或个人管理，强制出席的有效性的影响，也没有这些干预措施的有效性相比，现有的商业教育干预措施已被广泛实施在校园的有效性。目前的研究旨在解决这些差距，以应对合作校园中高风险群体和个人的需求。本研究的具体目的是：1）通过与同伴提供的酒精技能培训（ASTP）组和无治疗对照组的比较，初步测试基于选择日志的干预在减少高危新生酒精使用和后果方面的有效性; 2）与网络传递的动机反馈和仅评估相比，酒精EDU基于网络的教育干预的有效性的初步测试，3）测试试点研究中支持的干预措施的长期有效性，将兄弟会和姐妹会的成员随机分配到同伴提供的个人BASICS，或试点研究支持的一种或多种替代干预措施; 4）测试同伴交付的BASICS的有效性相比，一个或多个比较干预措施中确定的试点1和2与学生授权通过校园制裁过程相比，志愿者参与; 5）评估基线饮酒， 酒精问题家族史、自我决定、改变意愿和对干预的抵抗作为干预效果的调节因子; 6）评价描述性规范、强制性规范、酒精结果预期和改变意愿作为干预效果的调节因子。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the current research is to reduce alcohol use and related negative health, social, and legal consequences in high-risk populations of college students. Interventions designed to counter peer and normative influences on alcohol use, in conjunction with expectancy challenge, risk-reduction, and motivational enhancement have shown evidence of efficacy of college populations. Less is known about the efficacy of different implementation strategies, including web- or self-help journal formats, group or individual administration, the impact of mandatory attendance on effectiveness, nor the efficacy of these interventions in comparison to existing commercially-available educational interventions which have been widely implemented on campuses. The current research is designed to address these gaps, in response to identified needs of high-risk groups and individuals on the partnered campus. The specific aims of the application are: 1) Pilot test the efficacy of the Choices journal-based intervention in comparison to peer-delivered alcohol skills-training (ASTP) group and no-treatment controls, in reducing alcohol use and consequences of high-risk freshmen; 2) Pilot test the efficacy of the Alcohol EDU web-based educational intervention in comparison to web-delivered motivational feedback and assessment-only, in reducing alcohol use and consequences of high-risk freshmen; 3) Test the longer-term efficacy of interventions supported in the pilot study, with members of fraternities and sororities randomized to peer-delivered individual BASICS, or one or more alternative interventions supported by the pilot studies; 4) Test the effectiveness of peer-delivered BASICS compared to one or more comparison interventions identified in pilots 1 & 2 with students mandated to participate through campus sanctioning processes compared to volunteers; 5) Evaluate baseline drinking, family history of alcohol problems, self-determination, readiness to change, and resistance to intervention as moderators of intervention efficacy; and 6) Evaluate descriptive norms, injunctive norms, alcohol outcome expectancies, and readiness to change as mediators of intervention efficacy.
