NCT03846050

Brief Summary

This project combined laboratory and ambulatory assessment (AA) methods to test decision making associated with alcohol impaired driving (AID). Participants will complete a laboratory alcohol administration session followed by 6 weeks of mobile assessment. Data from drinking events will be examined to test how individuals make choices about driving or not after consuming alcohol.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Alcohol impaired driving behavior

    Participants will provide self-reported driving behavior (yes/no driven a vehicle) after drinking alcohol during the AA portion. This assessment will be taken from their daily smartphone responses.

    12 weeks

  • Alcohol impaired driving behavior (retrospective)

    Participants will provide self-reported driving behavior (yes/no driven a vehicle) after drinking alcohol retrospectively during interview sessions. Participants will complete regular phone interview where their daily driving and drinking behavior will be assessed. The outcome measure of interest will be days when participants report driving (yes/no) after consuming alcohol.

    12 weeks

  • Alcohol impaired driving intentions

    Participants will provide self-reported intentions to drive after drinking alcohol (Would you drive now? Yes/no) from daily assessments during the AA portion of the project.

    6 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Perceived risk of driving

    6 weeks

Study Arms (3)

BAC Feedback, immediate onset

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive a"BAC Feedback/Warning" intervention based on their assessed BAC. Participants in this arm will have a warning presented on their smartphone when they provide a breath sample that indicated their BAC has reached a set limit. The cutpoint for this warning is not disclosed but is well below the legal limit for driving. Warning will notify them that their results indicate it is not safe for them to drive. In this condition, participants will start their 6 week AA portion of their participation immediately after their laboratory session, and will be followed for 6 weeks afterwards. Comparisons between the two experimental conditions will allow for inferences about the onset and offset of any effects of the "BAC Feedback/Warning" intervention.

Behavioral: BAC feedback/warning

BAC Feedback, delayed onset

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will receive the "BAC Feedback/Warning" intervention based on their assessed BAC during drinking events.The cutpoint for this warning is not disclosed but is well below the legal limit for driving. Warning will notify them that their results indicate it is not safe for them to drive. In this condition, participants will be followed for 6 weeks after their laboratory session prior to starting their 6 week AA portion of their participation. Comparisons between the two experimental conditions will allow for inferences about the onset and offset of any effects of the "BAC Feedback/Warning" intervention.

Behavioral: BAC feedback/warning

Minimal Assessment Control

PLACEBO COMPARATOR

Participants will receive the "No BAC Feedback/Warning" intervention. Participants in this condition will complete the laboratory and interview portions of the project. However the AA portion of the project will not contain warning about their BAC (No BAC Feedback/Warning) and will ask fewer questions regarding their AID decisions. The role of this condition is to provide a baseline comparison of AID behavior for the two active assessment conditions.

Behavioral: No BAC feedback/warning

Interventions

Participants will receive a warning when their BAC reaches a set limit. The cutpoint for this warning is not disclosed but is well below the legal limit for driving. Warning will notify them that their results indicate it is not safe for them to drive.

BAC Feedback, delayed onsetBAC Feedback, immediate onset

Participants will receive no information on their current intoxication and will be asked to report less information on their driving decisions.

Model Details: Participants are randomly assigned to 3 conditions, 2 "active" and one control condition. In the active conditions, participants will receive "warning" messages when their BAC reaches a set threshold that it is not safe for them to drive. The two "Active" conditions differ in the timing of their onset of the intervention. The control condition will not receive warning and will not report on their driving decision in the moment.
