NCT02584621

Brief Summary

The proposed study is a randomized controlled trial that compares the effectiveness of an electronic personalized health screening app incorporating motivational feedback (i.e. "Check Yourself") to usual care among moderate to high risk alcohol users. The purpose of this study is to determine whether Check Yourself is more effective than usual care in reducing alcohol consumption and binge drinking and improving quality of care among adolescents receiving school-based health clinic services.

Check Yourself App With Feedback

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants complete Check Yourself, an electronic health screening app and receive personalized, motivational feedback on their health behaviors prior to their visit with their health provider. Key components of Check Yourself include the provision of age normative feedback, goal setting strategies, and strategies to highlight discrepancies. Health providers receive a summary report of health risk behaviors from Check Yourself prior to the visit.

Behavioral: Check Yourself App with Feedback

Usual Care

NO INTERVENTION

Participants are asked to complete health risk screening questions on a tablet computer. No personalized feedback is provided to adolescents and primary care providers do not receive a summary report of the adolescent's health risk behaviors.
