The objective of this treatment development grant is to create an innovative and efficacious alcohol intervention for emerging adults using features from three theoretically sound and empirically supported approaches. A set of students will be engaged to serve as peer leaders to assist in reducing hazardous drinking behavior among their peers. This new intervention, a Bystander Brief Motivational Intervention (BBMI) spans Stages 1A and 1B of the stage model of behavioral therapies research and will utilize qualitative methods, an open trial, and a small controlled pilot trial within the targeted college community.
