A Brief Intervention for Alcohol Users With Interpersonal Trauma

CompletedNA

Sponsor: Western Kentucky University

Conditions: Heavy Drinking, Alcohol Drinking, Substance Use, Drinking Behavior

Interventions: Standard Brief Intervention, Trauma-Informed and Peer-Supported Brief Intervention, Assessment only

Countries: United States

The current proposal aims to enhance a mobile-delivered brief intervention for young adults with heavy alcohol use and interpersonal trauma by including adaptive coping strategies for managing trauma-related distress and using peer coaches after delivery of the intervention to maintain treatment gains. Individuals will be randomized to a modified brief intervention incorporating with peer coaches, a standard brief intervention, or assessment only. Participants will be followed up at 3 and 6 months post intervention. The investigators hypothesize that the trauma-informed and peer-supported brief intervention (TIPS-BI) will show low levels of dropout, will be perceived positively by participants, and will result in greater reductions in alcohol use compared to a standard brief intervention and assessment only.
