The purpose of the present study was to evaluate an adapted web-based multi-component personalized feedback intervention to reduce college student alcohol use and risky sexual behavior during Spring Break. This is one of the first interventions focused on Spring Break alcohol use and related sexual behavior. Personalized feedback intervention components addressed intentions, expected consequences, norms, motivations, protective behavioral strategies, and pacts with friends. Participants were college students (N=263; 55% women) between the ages of 18 and 21 who planned to go on a Spring Break trip with their friends. Effects were not significant in reducing alcohol use or sexual behavior during Spring Break or some of the proposed intervention mechanisms. However, consistent results showed that the intervention succeeded in reducing perceived social norms for Spring Break drinking and sexual behavior. Findings suggest that changing norms alone is not sufficient for changing risk behavior during this event and alternative strategies are needed to impact other putative mediators.
本研究旨在评估一种经改编的基于网络的多组件个性化反馈干预措施,以减少大学生在春假期间的饮酒和高危性行为。这是首个专注于春假饮酒和相关性行为的干预措施之一。个性化反馈干预措施涉及意图、预期后果、规范、动机、保护性行为策略以及与朋友的约定。参与者为年龄在 18 至 21 岁之间、计划与朋友一起参加春假旅行的大学生(N=263;55%为女性)。该干预措施在减少春假期间的饮酒或性行为方面效果并不显著,也没有对某些预期的干预机制产生影响。然而,一致的结果表明,该干预措施成功地降低了春假饮酒和性行为的感知社会规范。研究结果表明,仅改变规范不足以改变这一事件期间的风险行为,需要采取其他策略来影响其他假定的中介因素。
