Overview
Brief Summary
The proposed study is a randomized controlled trial that compares the effectiveness of an electronic personalized health screening app incorporating motivational feedback (i.e., "Check Yourself") to usual care. The purpose of this study is to determine whether Check Yourself is more effective than usual care in reducing health risk behaviors and improving quality of care among adolescents receiving primary health care services.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Number of Health risk behaviors
Time Frame: 3 months
Total count health-risk behaviors at 3-month follow-up (Score range= 0-13) adjusted by total number of baseline risk behaviors (with risk cut-off): ≥2 sugar-sweetened beverages consumed/day; ≤3 servings fruits/vegetables consumed/day; ≤3 days with 60+ minutes exercise during typical week; ≥3 hours of screen time during typical school day; ≤7 hours of sleep during typical night; not "always" using seatbelt; not "always" using helmet when bicycling; having driven under the influence of substances; days of alcohol consumption in last 30 days (risk based on age: ≥1 day/30 days (ages 13-15), ≥2 days/30 days (ages 16-17), or ≥3 days/30 days (age 18)) and/or number of drinks/drinking episode (risk based on age and sex: ≥3 (Girls 13-17; Boys 13), ≥4 (Girls 18; Boys 14-15), or ≥5 (Boys 16-18)); any tobacco use; any marijuana/other drugs use; not using birth control during last sexual intercourse and/or not "always" using a condom; and ≥10 score on PHQ-9.
