DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): It has been estimated that 1,445 college students aged from 18-24 died in 1998 from alcohol-related unintentional injuries, including motor vehicle accidents (Hingson et al., 2002). However, while several empirical studies have examined the effectiveness of brief interventions, and brief interventions plus booster sessions, there are no methodologically rigorous studies of long-term interventions. The proposed study aims to capitalize on the nearly unique opportunity afforded by college students being available for a number of years, just when drinking is escalating. College facilitation has been developed from the case monitoring telephone protocol (Stout et al., 1999). Very good pilot results have been obtained with a 5-month version of college facilitation. Volunteers from a nearby university's alcohol policy first offender program will be recruited and randomly assigned (by urn randomization) to one of two conditions: college facilitation for two years or the control group. Both groups will also receive the University of Rhode Island's standard First Offender fine and survey. A total of four hundred students will be recruited and followed for two years. The primary aim is to test whether college facilitation impacts drinking intensity and drinking-related consequences. Secondary aims will examine other outcome measures (academic functioning and reoffense rates) and hypothetical moderator and mediator variables. The two-year college facilitation program will consist of 18 planned contacts during the academic year. The proposed study will be one of the first to examine the efficacy of this many contacts spread out over this long a period in a college sample.

描述（申请人提供）：据估计，1998 年有 1,445 名 18 至 24 岁的大学生死于与酒精相关的意外伤害，包括机动车事故（Hingson 等人，2002 年）。然而，虽然一些实证研究已经检验了短期干预以及短期干预加加强课程的有效性，但还没有对长期干预进行方法论上严格的研究。这项拟议的研究旨在利用大学生提供的近乎独特的机会，他们可以在饮酒不断升级的情况下呆上几年。大学便利化是从病例监测电话协议发展而来的（Stout 等人，1999）。为期 5 个月的大学辅导取得了非常好的试点结果。 来自附近大学酒精政策初犯计划的志愿者将被招募并随机分配（通过骨灰盒随机化）到以下两个条件之一：两年的大学辅导或对照组。两个群体还将收到罗德岛大学的标准初犯罚款和调查。总共将招募四百名学生并对其进行为期两年的跟踪。主要目的是测试大学便利化是否会影响饮酒强度和饮酒相关后果。 次要目标将检查其他结果指标（学业功能和再犯罪率）以及假设的调节变量和中介变量。为期两年的大学促进计划将包括学年期间计划的 18 次接触。这项拟议的研究将是第一个研究在大学样本中分布在这么长一段时间内的如此多的接触的有效性的研究之一。
