Harm Reduction Clinical Trial
Official title:
An Augmented Reality Videogame for Alcohol Use Prevention and Harm
The goal of this research study is to develop the AR-based alcohol use prevention and harm reduction intervention, "No Time Wasted", with the further aim of conducting a pre-post pilot study to assess whether the game reduce risk behaviors associated with alcohol use, whilst also increasing knowledge about some of the following topics: BAC, standard drink sizes, signs of alcohol poisoning. The intervention will also seek to encourage bystander intervention to assist fictional characters in need of help due to overdrinking.

Primary | To determine participants' satisfaction and gameplay experience | Participants will complete a post-survey through a secured, data collection website (Qualtrics Data Collection Software). The survey includes 5 items on game experience and satisfaction from items designed for a previous videogame study on sexual risk reduction in young adolescents (e.g., "I would tell my friends to play this game," Questions have 5-point Likert-type choices ranging from strongly disagree to strongly agree or definitely yes to definitely not, or 5 response choices ranging from very unlikely to very likely. | End of gameplay - 2 hours | |
Secondary | Behaviors with alcohol pretest | To determine the baseline alcohol use behavior and attitudes--pretest survey. Participants will complete a pre-survey through a secured, data collection website (Qualtrics Data Collection Software) and then play the videogame intervention. The 5 questions from the 2019 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRBS) that pertain to alcohol consumption will be used to assess participant alcohol use behavior. These items relate to frequency of drinking in the past 30 days (0-30), frequency of binge drinking in the past 30 days (0-20), and the maximum number of drinks consumed in a row in the last 30 days (1-10). | Baseline | |
Secondary | Knowledge of alcohol pre-test | To determine the impact of an AR harm reduction and prevention videogame prototype, FREEZE!, on participants' knowledge about alcohol - Pre-test survey.
Participants will complete a pre-survey through a secured, data collection website (Qualtrics Data Collection Software), before playing the videogame intervention. A 12-item true/false/not sure block of questions will be developed to assess knowledge about alcohol information such as symptoms of alcohol poisoning, standard drink sizes, social host laws, common alcohol and drug interactions, and myths and misconceptions about alcohol. |

Secondary | Knowledge of alcohol post-test | To determine the impact of an AR harm reduction and prevention videogame prototype, FREEZE!, on participants' knowledge about alcohol - Post-test survey. Participants will complete a post-survey through a secured, data collection website (Qualtrics Data Collection Software), after playing the videogame intervention. A 12-item true/false/not sure block of questions will be developed to assess knowledge about alcohol information such as symptoms of alcohol poisoning, standard drink sizes, social host laws, common alcohol and drug interactions, and myths and misconceptions about alcohol. | End of gameplay - 2 hours | |
Secondary | Intentions, attitudes, and social norms pre-test | Participants will complete a pre-survey through a secured, data collection website (Qualtrics Data Collection Software), before playing the videogame intervention.The Brief Adolescent Alcohol Expectancy Questionnaire (AEQ-AB) is designed to measure the degree to which individuals expect alcohol to produce a variety of general and specific effects. Research with the AEQ indicates a consistent relationship between alcohol expediencies and alcohol consumption, alcohol abuse and behavior while drinking. This questionnaire has 7 items that address intentions about drinking, attitudes towards both positive and negative components of alcohol consumption, and questions that address peer alcohol expectations and related social norms. | Baseline | |

Secondary | Self-efficacy to refuse pre-test | Participants will complete a post-survey through a secured, data collection website (Qualtrics Data Collection Software), before playing the videogame intervention.The 9-item Drinking Refusal Self-Efficacy Question are Shortened Revised Adolescent version (DRSEQ-SRA) is a shortened version of the DRSEQ-RA. It measures levels of drinking refusal self-efficacy, or confidence in an adolescent's ability to resist alcohol in cued situations. Responses are rated on a 6-point Likert scale (1 = I am very sure I could NOT resist drinking to 6 = I am very sure I could resist drinking). It comprises three subscales: Emotional relief refusal self-efficacy (3 items, e.g., 'When I feel sad'); Opportunistic refusal self-efficacy (3 items, e.g., 'When I am listening to music or reading'); Social pressure refusal self-efficacy (3 items, e.g., 'When my friends are drinking'). | Baseline | |
