Parents and Teens Together (PATT): A Dyadic Digital Intervention to Prevent Substance Use Disorders
In Brief
A clinical study evaluating Single Session Family Intervention for Substance Use. Completed, enrolled 9 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
The project will launch the development of Parents and Teens Together (PATT), a dyadic digital parent-teen prevention intervention, for families of young teens experimenting or at high risk for experimenting with substance use (SU) that can provide personalized support for learning and practicing evidence-based family skills. This scalable intervention will combine a blended, virtual and health coach-led, single-session intervention (SSI) for evidence-based family skills with an mHealth app delivering a just-in-time adaptive intervention (JITAI) to support the use of family skills in daily life. As a first step in the iterative design of PATT, this project will test the acceptability, feasibility and costs of the SSI and engage in a participatory design process to finalize the plan for an initial JITAI prototype. For young teens experimenting or at risk for experimenting with SU and their parents, ready access to a scalable prevention program that closely mirrors and extends the in-time support provided in behavioral family therapy is essential for SUD prevention.

Interventions
A health coach will deliver a 2-hour single-session consultation to support parent-teen dyadis in applying evidence-based family skills in daily life. Participants will then practice daily on their own for the next 7 days.
