Brief Summary

The current study is assessing the effects of receiving Screening, Brief Intervention and Referral to Treatment alone versus also receiving a brief online personalized intervention on impaired driving behaviors among Washington State young adults aged 18-30.

Conditions

Impaired Driving

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• Number of times in the past 3 months participants drove impaired by both alcohol and cannabis at 3 month follow-up

  From baseline to 3 months later at 3 month follow up assessment.

Secondary Outcomes (11)

• Number of times in the past 3 months participants drove impaired by both alcohol and cannabis at 6 month follow-up

  From 3 month after completing baseline to 3 months later at the 6 month follow-up assessment

• Number of times in the past 3 months participants drove impaired by alcohol only at 3 month follow-up

  From baseline to 3 months later at 3 month follow-up assessment

• Number of times in the past 3 months participants drove impaired by cannabis only at 3 month follow-up

  From baseline to 3 months later at 3 month follow-up assessment

• Number of times in the past 3 months participants drove impaired by alcohol only at 6 month follow-up

  From 3 months after baseline to 3 months later at 6 month follow-up assessment

• Number of times in the past 3 months participants drove impaired by cannabis only at 6 month follow-up

  From 3 months after baseline to 3 months later at 6 month follow-up assessment

Study Arms (2)

Waitlist control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Individuals will have received SBIRT but will be on a waitlist to receive the brief personalized intervention for 3 months after baseline assessment.

Behavioral: Personalize Feedback Intervention

Active Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will have received SBIRT and receive the brief online personalized intervention immediately after baseline assessment.

Behavioral: Personalize Feedback Intervention

Interventions

Personalize Feedback Intervention BEHAVIORAL

The brief online personalized feedback intervention (PFI) is adapted from the personalized feedback provided in BASICS, iCHAMP, studies using similar standalone PFI approaches. Specifically, feedback adapted from these brief motivational interventions and prior projects include: Patterns of use: alcohol, cannabis, other drug, and polysubstance use frequency, alcohol and cannabis quantity and peak; Substance use norms; Expectancies of use of alcohol ; Estimates on money the participant spends on alcohol and cannabis compared; Protective behavioral strategies; Alcohol- and/or cannabis-impaired driving norms; Wait time to drive and related psychoeducation; Additional psychoeducation is provided (e.g., standard drink; information on tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) percentages) throughout the feedback to improve understanding and motivation for change.
