DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term goals of this research are to: 1) examine the stages of initiation and patterns of consumption of high potency alcoholic beverages (HPABs), including malt liquor and fortified wine, among three ethnically and economically diverse samples of adolescents; and 2) test innovative prevention messages aimed at reducing health and social problems related to HPAB use. The specific aims proposed to achieve these long-term goals include the following: 1) Map the stages of initiation of specific HPABS, patterns of HPAB consumption, and trends in mixing HPABs with other alcoholic beverages and illicit drugs among three diverse groups of adolescents over three years; 2) explore the relationship between the stages of initiation and patterns of HPAB and non-HPAB consumption, and alcohol-related health and social problems; 3) assess the contextual and psychosocial factors associated with the stages of initiation and patterns of use of various HPABs and non- HPABs; and 4) develop and pilot test the feasibility and immediate impact of innovative prevention messages aimed at retarding the initiation of HPAB consumption among high-risk youth. The exploratory research phase of the study, which will result in the generation of directional hypotheses about new approaches to explaining and preventing HPAB consumption, will be accomplished by employing a 3-year longitudinal cohort design. Participants sampled from three ethnically and socioeconomically diverse school settings representing high- risk youth in inner city, rural and beaches-community areas of northeast Florida will serve as subjects. The cohort will be tracked each year from the 7th grade through the 9th grade. The formative research phase of the study, which will permit the development and pilot testing of innovative HPAB prevention messages, will be accomplished by employing three research methods. These methods include conducting a series of focus groups, convening expert panels, and eventually pilot testing prevention messages aimed at retarding the initiation and patterns of use of HPABS.

描述（由申请人提供）： 这项研究的长期目标是：1）检查 高效力酒精饮料的启动和消费方式 （HPABS），包括麦芽酒和强化葡萄酒，在三种种族上和 经济上多样化的青少年样本； 2）测试创新预防 旨在减少与HPAB使用有关的健康和社会问题的消息。这 提议实现这些长期目标的具体目标包括以下内容： 1）映射特定HPAB的启动阶段，HPAB的模式 消费以及将HPAB与其他酒精饮料混合的趋势和 三年来，三个不同的青少年组中的非法药物； 2） 探索启动阶段与HPAB模式之间的关系 以及非HPAB消费以及与酒精有关的健康和社会问题； 3） 评估与阶段相关的背景和社会心理因素 各种HPAB和非HPAB的使用和使用模式； 4）发展 并试点测试创新预防的可行性和直接影响 旨在阻碍高风险中HPAB消费启动的消息 青年。研究的探索性研究阶段，这将导致 产生有关解释和解释新方法的定向假设 防止HPAB消耗，将通过3年来实现 纵向队列设计。参与者从三个种族中取样， 社会经济多样化的学校环境，代表高风险青年 佛罗里达州东北部的内城，乡村和海滩社区地区将服务 作为主题。该队列将每年从7年级到 九年级。研究的形成性研究阶段，这将允许 创新HPAB预防信息的开发和试点测试将 可以通过采用三种研究方法来完成。这些方法包括 进行一系列焦点小组，召集专家小组，最终 试点测试预防消息旨在阻碍启动和 HPABS的使用模式。
