- Registration Number
- NCT05246202
- Lead Sponsor
- University of Houston
- Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to develop, evaluate the acceptability/feasibility (Phase IA), and test (Phase IB) the effectiveness of a brief, integrated, single-session, computer-based, culturally adapted personalized feedback intervention (PFI) designed to enhance knowledge regarding adverse anxiety-alcohol interrelations, increase motivation and intention to reduce hazardous drinking, and reduce positive attitudes and intention regarding anxiety-related alcohol use among Latinx hazardous drinkers with anxiety.
- Detailed Description
In the first phase, the investigators will collect qualitative and quantitative feedback from focus groups to refine intervention content and evaluate treatment acceptability and feasibility of a novel, brief, integrated, culturally adapted computer-based personalized feedback intervention (PFI). In the second phase, Latinx hazardous drinkers with clinical anxiety will be recruited and randomly assigned to either the refined culturally adapted anxiety-alcohol PFI (AA-PFI 2.0) or a control PFI (C-PFI). Initial screening will be conducted via telephone; baseline and post-treatment data will be collected in-person; and 1-, 3-, and 6-month follow-up data will be collected online remotely.

Group Intervention Description Anxiety-alcohol personalized feedback intervention (AA-PFI 2.0) Alcohol-Anxiety Personalized Feedback Intervention 2.0 Participants complete the brief (\~20-30 minute) AA-PFI 2.0 at baseline. Control personalized feedback intervention (C-PFI) Control Personalized Feedback Intervention Participants complete the brief (\~20-30 minute) C-PFI at baseline.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Motivation to Reduce Alcohol Consumption Scale Change from Baseline Pre PFI completion to Baseline Post PFI completion The 1-item Motivation to Reduce Alcohol Consumption Scale will be used to measure current motivation/intention to reduce alcohol. Participants will be asked to select the statement that best describes their motivation/intention to reduce drinking (e.g., "I really want to cut down on drinking alcohol and intend to in the next month"). Higher scores on this measure indicate greater motivation/intention to reduce alcohol consumption (possible range (0-7).
Alcohol Attitudes Scale Change from Baseline Pre PFI completion to Baseline Post PFI completion The 7-item Alcohol Attitudes Scale will be utilized to measure maladaptive attitudes for drinking (e.g., "Drinking alcohol is good"). Items are rated on a Likert-type scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Scores will be averaged to create a composite score (possible range 1 to 7). Higher scores indicate greater maladaptive attitudes for drinking.
Modified Drinking Motives Questionnaire-Revised Change from Baseline Pre PFI completion to Baseline Post PFI completion The Modified Drinking Motives Questionnaire-Revised will be used to assess expectancies of drinking. For the current study, the 4-item "Coping-anxiety" subscale will be used as a measure of expectancies of drinking to reduce/cope with anxiety. The measure utilizes a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (almost never/never) to 5 (almost always/always). Scores are averaged with higher scores indicating greater expectancies of drinking to reduce/cope with anxiety (possible range 1 to 5).
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test Change from Baseline Pre PFI Completion to 6-months Post PFI Completion The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test will be used to assess drinking quantity, craving, and related consequences to alcohol use. The 10 items are rated with various Likert-type scales. The measure produces a total score by adding all of the items of the measure with higher scores indicating greater problems with alcohol (possible range 0 to 40).
Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale Change from Baseline Pre PFI Completion to 6-months Post PFI Completion The 5-item Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale will be used to assess anxiety symptom severity and impairment. Each of the items is rated on a Likert-type scale ranging from 0 to 4. Items are summed to produce a total score (possible range 0 to 20).
