Detroit Area Study of College Student Lifestyles
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating BASICS motivational interview, BASICS plus normative enhancement motivational interview, and 1 other intervention for Excessive Alcohol Consumption. Completed, enrolled 181 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The goal of this research study is to compare three harm reduction approaches for at-risk college student drinkers. One approach provides generic risk-related information after an initial interview/questionnaire assessment session. A second approach uses an established motivational interviewing framework (Brief Alcohol Screening and Intervention for College Students; BASICS) that provides personalized feedback in a follow-up session. A third approach also uses BASICS, but tests the utility of a personality-informed module for this approach that is informed by the social investment hypothesis.
