Adolescent Problem Behavior Clinical Trial

Official title:
Multi-site Evaluation of an Evidence-based Positive Youth Development Program: a School-level, Longitudinal, Randomized Controlled Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

Investigators are carrying out a study to assess the immediate and long-term effects of a positive youth development program (the Teen Outreach Program) on high school youth in Florida. This study will answer the following questions: What is the impact of the Teen Outreach Program on sexual activity and positive youth development at the end of the program and 10 months after the program?

Clinical Trial Description

Schools were randomly allocated to either the intervention or the control group. At treatment (intervention) schools, youth participated in TOP in addition to their Health, HOPE, Critical Thinking, Career Research, or Leadership class. At control (non-intervention) schools, youth simply participated in their business-as-usual Health, HOPE, Critical Thinking, Career Research, or Leadership class. Two cohorts of students were recruited for this study, the first cohort joined the study in August 2012 and the second cohort joined the study in August 2013. A survey was given to youth at both treatment and control schools. The paper-and-pencil survey took approximately 30 minutes and asked questions about youth school, grades, peers, health behaviors, and behaviors related to teen pregnancy, including what the participant believes and does in regards to sexual health. The survey was completely confidential and participant names were not linked to survey responses. All survey materials were pre-approved by school administration and the school district office. Participants will be asked to complete the a survey at pre-intervention, post-intervention, and 10-months post-intervention (Cohort 1 only) ;
