DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The U.S. Surgeon General and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services identified heavy drinking among college students as a major public health problem. Existing interventions generally provide alcohol education focusing on skills building, rather than tailored individualized behavior change. Harm reduction programs that do focus on behavior change have not taken advantage of the Internet, a widely used, low- cost, and effective delivery channel for health promotion. In addition, there is a lack of tailored, population- based interventions for students who have not started drinking at high-risk levels. This Phase I research proposes the development of an innovative, efficacious, and cost-effective Internet-based program that is intended to reduce high-risk drinking among college students who have already begun drinking at dangerous levels; prevent students who do not currently drink at dangerous levels from beginning to do so, based on their level of risk; and promote effective behavioral strategies to reduce alcohol-related harm in colleges. This evidence-based, individualized, interactive program based on the Transtheoretical Model (TTM) and delivered by colleges to their students via the Internet or Intranet, can have substantial impacts on alcohol consumption and problems. There are several reasons for colleges to purchase this program. Market research has found that colleges want self-guided interventions that do not require active faculty participation. The program is also cost-effective, confidential, and easy to use so that the buyer does not handle data collection, storage or administrative tasks. An experienced team of alcohol, TTM, and education researchers will develop TTM measures followed by a pilot intervention created with input from an expert panel and key stakeholders. Experts and focus groups of students and faculty will evaluate the program. Fifty pilot participants will test the usability, feasibility, and acceptability of the program. This research will be supported by resources that have enabled 15 SBIRs that have resulted thus far in 8 commercial products. Relevance: Reducing heavy drinking among college students is a national health priority. This research proposes to develop an innovative, science-based, cost effective, Internet-based intervention to reduce high- risk drinking among college students who are already drinking at dangerous levels, prevent students who are not drinking at high levels from starting, and promote healthy strategies to alcohol-related harm.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国外科医生和美国卫生与公共服务部将大学生的大量饮酒视为一个主要的公共卫生问题。现有的干预措施通常提供关注技能建设的酒精教育，而不是量身定制的个性化行为改变。确实专注于行为改变的减少伤害计划并未利用互联网，这是一种广泛使用的，低成本和有效的促进健康渠道。此外，对于尚未开始以高风险水平饮酒的学生，缺乏量身定制的基于人群的干预措施。这一第一阶段的研究提出了一个创新，有效且基于互联网的创新，有效的互联网计划，该计划旨在减少已经开始以危险水平饮酒的大学生中的高风险饮酒；防止目前不以危险水平饮酒的学生，因为他们的风险水平还是根据他们的风险水平；并促进有效的行为策略，以减少大学中与酒精相关的危害。该基于循证的，个性化的互动计划基于跨理论模型（TTM），并由大学通过互联网或Intranet交付给学生，可能会对酒精消耗和问题产生重大影响。大学购买此计划的原因有几个。市场研究发现，大学需要自助干预措施，而这些干预措施不需要积极的教师参与。该程序还具有成本效益，机密且易于使用，因此买家不处理数据收集，存储或管理任务。经验丰富的酒精，TTM和教育研究人员将制定TTM措施，然后是通过专家小组和主要利益相关者的意见而制定的试点干预措施。专家和焦点学生和教职员工将评估该计划。五十名飞行员参与者将测试该计划的可用性，可行性和可接受性。这项研究将得到启用15个SBIRS的资源的支持，这些SBIR到目前为止已有8个商业产品。相关性：减少大学生的大量饮酒是国家健康的重点。这项研究建议开发一种创新的，基于科学的，具有成本效益的基于互联网的干预措施，以减少已经以危险水平饮酒的大学生的高风险饮酒，防止未在高水平开始饮酒的学生开始，并将健康策略促进与酒精有关的危害。
