简要总结
The current study proposes to develop, refine, and conduct a preliminary randomized controlled trial (RCT) of an innovative prevention program that is the first to (a) simultaneously target heavy episodic drinking (HED), sexually aggressive behavior (SAB), and risky sexual behavior (RSB) among college men; (b) integrate personalized feedback and cognitive training strategies; and (c) target the five major modifiable risk factors for SAB: HED, impersonal sex, misperceptions of sexual interest, rape-supportive attitudes, and peer influence. The program will be computer-delivered as this approach is well received by college students.
详细描述
The study will include three phases (pilot feasibility n=10; pilot acceptability/efficacy n=40; RCT n=140), with 190 men at risk for HED, RSB, and SAB. Participants in the RCT will be randomly assigned to either the computer-based program or services as usual at 2 large public universities in the midwest and southwest U.S. The three study phases will address the following aims:
AIM ONE: Examine the feasibility of the computer administered personalized feedback and cognitive training approach (Phase I; n=10), and the acceptability and efficacy of individual intervention components based on skills assessments and interviews at 1-month follow-up (Phase II; n=40). Data from Phases I and II will be used to modify and streamline the intervention prior to the RCT (Phase III).
AIM TWO: In an RCT (n=140), evaluate whether the prevention program impacts cognitive training and personalized feedback targets at 1-month follow-up, relative to services as usual (SAU). Cognitive training targets include (a) enhanced focus on women's affect; (b) reduced focus on women's non-affective cues; and (c) correction of over-perceptions of women's sexual interest. Personalized feedback targets include (a) increased readiness to change; (b) increased perceptions of risk; and (c) reduced misperceptions of peer attitudes and behaviors.
AIM THREE: Evaluate whether the prevention program shows short-term effects on attitudinal (e.g., rape supportive and sociosexual attitudes) and behavioral outcomes (SAB, HED, and RSB) at 1-month follow-up.

结局指标
主要结局
The Illinois Rape Myth Assessment
时间窗: One month
The Illinois Rape Myth Assessment - Short Form (IRMA-SF) will assess rape supportive attitudes (Payne, Lonsway, \& Fitzgerald, 1999). Maximum values are 1 and maximum 7. Higher scores indicate more supportive attitudes.
Sociosexual Attitudes
时间窗: One month
Sociosexual attitudes will be assessed using 15 items from Bailey et al. (2000). This is not a validated scale but rather several items from past research. The scale ranges from 1 to 5, with higher scores being stronger attitudes.
Alcohol Use Disorder Identification Test
时间窗: One month
Heavy drinking will be assessed using the AUDIT. Specifically, one item asks about frequency of alcohol use, one item asks about frequency of binge drinking, and one item asks about quantity of alcohol use. Higher scores mean more drinking.
Attraction To Sexual Aggression
时间窗: One month
Rape proclivity will be assessed using the Attraction to Sexual Aggression scale (Malamuth, 1989a; Malamuth, 1989b), where participants rate their likelihood of engaging in sexual aggresion from 0-100%. Higher percentage equals higher attraction to sexual aggression.
