Examining an Intervention to Reduce High School Drinking
Sponsor: Binghamton University
Summary
Underage drinking is a significant problem in the United States. While past research supports the efficacy of interventions in delaying the initiation of alcohol use implemented in middle school and early high school, research shows drinking by older high schoolers is problematic and interventions for older high schoolers remain limited. The current project will test the efficacy of the e-CHECKUP TO GO (eCTG), alone and combined with an electronic-Parent-Based Intervention (ePBI), for junior and senior high school students using a nationally representative sample with the goal of reducing alcohol use and negative consequences.

Interventions
e-CHECKUP TO GO (eCTG)
A brief, web-based program designed by San Diego State University to reduce high-risk drinking by providing personalized normative feedback regarding alcohol use, risk factors, and risks associated with drinking and accurate information about alcohol.
e-Parent Intervention and eCTG (eCTG+)
The eCTG+ is a combination of the eCTG and the e-Parent Intervention, which is an electronic handbook developed by Rob Turrisi to guide parents in discussing drinking, behaviors, and consequences with their teens.
