Adapting Interventions for College Student Drinkers

描述（由申请人提供）：大学生饮酒者被认为可以分为两大类：寻求刺激的社交饮酒者和情绪应对饮酒者。第二组，虽然较小，经历更多的心理困难，并可能携带更大的风险酒精慢性病。拟议的研究的目的是开发，手动化，并试点测试的改编版本（DBT-BASICS）的建立简短的酒精筛查和干预大学生（BASICS）整合来自辩证行为疗法（DBT）的技能。为了准备2期临床试验，我们将根据Rounsaville，卡罗尔和Onken（2001）的治疗开发建议（即，两部分研究，包括手动开发和治疗试验）。因此，我们的项目被分为两个研究;研究1将是手动开发，在研究2中，我们将进行试点研究。大学生将通过心理学人类受试者库招募，并将以大规模测试格式完成筛选问卷（研究1和2分别为N=795和N=4800）。大量饮酒和饮酒以科普的学生将参加研究1并接受DBTBASICS（N=50），或研究2并随机分配到DBT-BASICS，BASICS或注意力控制条件（ACC）（N=300）。根据先前的研究，预计约9%的筛选样本将符合研究标准，其中70%将同意参与研究。在这70%的人口中，估计多达20%将因自然减员而流失。通过筛选795名学生参加研究1和4800名学生参加研究2，我们将有足够的受试者分别产生所需的40和240名参与者。将在4周和3个月时进行随访评估。 目前的项目旨在通过制定一项简短的行为干预措施和针对大学生的危险饮酒，实现国家酒精滥用和酒精中毒研究所（NIAAA）的战略规划目标。该奖项还将有助于在伦理，方法和临床研究领域培养有前途的临床研究人员，以满足我们对具有成本效益的心理健康预防和治疗日益增长的需求。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): College student drinkers have been suggested to fall into two broadly defined categories: sensation-seeking social drinkers, and emotion-coping drinkers. The second group, though smaller, experiences more psychological difficulties and may carry greater risk of alcohol chronicity. The aims of the proposed research are to develop, manualize, and pilot-test an adapted version (DBT-BASICS) of the established Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students (BASICS) to integrate skills derived from Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). In preparation for a Phase 2 clinical trial, we will develop DBT-BASICS in accordance with Rounsaville, Carroll, & Onken's (2001) suggestions for treatment development (i.e., a two part study including manual development and a treatment piloting). Accordingly, our project has been divided into two studies; Study 1 will be Manual Development and in Study 2 we will conduct the Pilot-Study. College students will be recruited through the Psychology Human Subject Pool and will complete a screening questionnaire in a mass testing format (N=795 and N=4800 for Studies 1 and 2 respectively). Students positive for heavy drinking and drinking to cope will participate in Study 1 and receive DBTBASICS (N=50) or, Study 2 and be randomly assigned to DBT-BASICS, BASICS, or Attention Control Condition (ACC) (N=300). Based on previous research, it is expected that approximately 9% of the screening sample will meet study criteria and, of those, 70% will consent to study participation. Of the 70%, it is estimated that up to 20% will be lost due to attrition. By screening 795 students for Study 1 and 4800 for Study 2, we will have enough subjects to yield the desired 40 and 240 respective participants. Follow-up assessments will occur at 4 weeks and 3 months. The current project aims meet the strategic planning goals of the National Institute of Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) by developing a brief behavioral intervention and targeting risky drinking among college students. The award would also aid in developing a promising clinical researcher in the areas of ethical, methodological, and clinical research needed to address our growing need for cost-effective, mental health prevention and treatment.
