Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
No Intervention: Wait-list

This arm will receive no intervention for the first 6 months. At the conclusion of the 6-month period, this group will receive a brief alcohol intervention

Active Comparator: Brief Alcohol Intervention

This arm will receive a brief (2-hour) alcohol intervention based on motivational interviewing

Behavioral: BASICS
A 2-hour group intervention focused on reducing alcohol use with the use of motivational interviewing

Active Comparator: Bystander and Social Norms Intervention

This arm will receive a brief (2-hour) bystander and social norms intervention designed to increase healthy sexual behaviors

Behavioral: Bystander and Social Norms
A 2-hour group intervention focused on increasing healthy sexual behaviors and prosocial bystander behavior

Active Comparator: Combined Alcohol and Bystander Intervention

This arm will receive a combined (4-hour) alcohol and bystander/social norms intervention to target both alcohol and sexual behavior

Behavioral: Combined BASICS and Bystander
A 2-session, 4-hour group that consists of both BASICS and the Bystander intervention

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test [6 months post-intervention]

    A self-report measure that examines alcohol use and problems. This measure produces one total score that is interpreted as "alcohol use and problems."

  2. Bystander Behavior Scale [6 months post-intervention]

    A self-report measure that examines opportunities and engagement in prosocial bystander behavior. A single total score is obtained by calculating the percentage of times individuals engaged in bystander behavior based on the number of opportunities they had for such behavior.
