This research extends the growing literature about online alcohol prevention programs for first-year college students. Two independent randomized control studies, conducted at separate universities, evaluated the short-term effectiveness of Alcohol-Wise, an online alcohol prevention program not previously studied. It was hypothesized the prevention program would increase alcohol knowledge and reduce alcohol consumption, including high-risk alcohol-related behaviors, among first-year college students. At both universities, the intervention significantly increased alcohol-related knowledge. At one university, the prevention program also significantly reduced alcohol consumption and high-risk drinking behaviors, such as playing drinking games, heavy drinking, and extreme ritualistic alcohol consumption. Implications for the use of online alcohol prevention programs and student affairs are discussed.
这项研究拓展了关于针对大学新生的在线酒精预防项目的日益增多的文献。在两所不同大学进行的两项独立随机对照研究,评估了此前未被研究过的在线酒精预防项目“明智饮酒”的短期效果。研究假设该预防项目会增加大学新生的酒精知识,并减少酒精消费,包括与酒精相关的高风险行为。在两所大学,干预措施均显著增加了与酒精相关的知识。在其中一所大学,该预防项目还显著减少了酒精消费以及高风险饮酒行为,比如玩饮酒游戏、大量饮酒和极端仪式性饮酒。文中还讨论了在线酒精预防项目的应用及对学生事务的影响。
