Interest of tDCS in Help for Supporting Alcohol Abstinence
Alcoholic IntoxicationThe aim of the study is to evaluate in patients with alcohol disorder and forehand weaned the efficiency of 10 active tDCS sessions versus 10 sham (placebo) sessions in the support of abstinence at 3 months.
Brief ROC Training Effects on Alcohol Drinking
Binge DrinkingHeavy Drinking10 moreThe goal of the proposed study is to examine whether a single session of training in regulation of craving (ROC-T) affects alcohol drinking. The study will consist of (1) a basic screening (phone and/or online) and an in-person visit, to determine eligibility and conduct pre-intervention baseline assessments; (2) a training (ROC-T) visit, (3) a post-intervention assessment visit, and (4) 1-2 phone/online follow-up assessments. The study will take up to 10 hours of the participants' time.

Binge DrinkingHeavy Drinking2 moreThe goal of the proposed study is to examine whether brief training in regulation of craving (ROC-T) affects alcohol drinking. The study will consist of a basic screening (phone and online), and in person visit to determine eligibility and conduct pre-intervention baseline assessments, 1-4 training (ROC-T) visits, a post-intervention assessment visit, and 1-2 phone/online follow up assessments.The two active conditions of ROC-T are based on cognitive-behavioral treatments (CBT) and mindfulness-based treatments (MBT).
Efficacy of the Dietary Food Supplement ALCOFILTRUM in Alleviating Alcohol Hangover Symptoms
Alcohol DrinkingAlcohol IntoxicationThe aim of this open-label, randomized, crossover, comparative pilot study is to assess efficacy and safety of the dietary food supplement ALCOFILTRUM in healthy volunteers who consume alcohol. Specifically the study will evaluate: Efficacy of the intervention to alleviate hangover symptoms in participants who consumed alcohol, Safety of intervention in participants who consuming alcohol. Participants will take four tablets of ALCOFILTRUM dietary food supplement 30 minutes before alcohol ingestion, while the control group will intake only alcohol drink.
WayToServePlus: Improving Responsible Alcohol Service Ph II
Alcohol DrinkingAlcohol Intoxication2 moreResponsible beverage service (RBS) training for alcohol servers is a promising intervention for reducing driving while intoxicated (DWI) by alcohol. Training, certification, and in-service contact improves professionalism and effectiveness of prevention interventions delivered by community members such as alcohol servers. This SBIR Fast-track project will develop and test an in-service professional development component to the WayToServe® online RBS training to improve the effectiveness of RBS training in order to make further gains in reducing problem alcohol behavior in communities.
Impacts of Subsidized Ridesharing on Drunk Driving, Alcohol Consumption, and Mobility
Driving DrunkAlcohol DrinkingThe purpose of this research study is to understand people's alcohol use in public places and their risks for harm. The overall goal of this study is to test the effects of subsidized ridesharing as an intervention to reduce self-reported alcohol-impaired driving, along with alcohol consumption and changes to mobility.
Suicide Intervention for Alaska Native Youth
Alaska Native Youth Aged 15 - 24Suicide3 moreTwo interventions will be delivered virtually to American Indian/Alaska Native youth who have been hospitalized with suicidal attempt, suicidal ideation, or associated risk behaviors, including alcohol-related injury.
Promoting Prosocial Bystander Behavior in Intoxicated Men: Evaluation of RealConsent2.0
Alcohol IntoxicationSexual Violence1 moreSexual violence (SV) is a significant public health problem particularly among 18-24 year old populations. A major risk factor for SV is alcohol use, which via its negative impact on cognitive abilities and decision-making acts as a barrier to intervening in situations at-risk for a SV. This study has two main goals: (1) to determine the effects of proximal alcohol use on young (age 21 to 25) men's prosocial bystander behavior in situations considered at-risk for SV, and (2) to determine the efficacy of an evidence-based, web-based program called RealConsent, which has been augmented to include alcohol-specific content within the context of bystander SV ("RealConsent2.0"), on men's prosocial bystander behavior. The primary study endpoint is prosocial bystander behavior and will be assessed via two modes: (1) a virtual reality (VR) environment ("B-SAVE") and (2) a validated self-report measure of bystander behavior that has been modified to include assessment of proximal alcohol use and presence of alcohol within the context.
The Impact of Oral Cannabis Administration and Co-Administration of Alcohol on Impairment
Cannabis IntoxicationAlcohol IntoxicationThis study will evaluate the individual and interactive effects of oral cannabis and alcohol on subjective and behavioral measures of impairment.
Biphasic Effects of Acute Alcohol Intoxication on Bystander Intervention
Alcohol IntoxicationThe goal of this experimental study is to examine the effect of alcohol, gender, and bystander attitudes on bystander barriers and sexual violence intervention among young adult men and women (age 21-20). The main questions it aims to answer are: Does alcohol intoxication and gender influence bystander barriers and sexual violence intervention? Does alcohol intoxication have a greater impact on bystander barriers and sexual violence intervention among men, compared to women? Does alcohol intoxication have a greater impact on bystander barriers and sexual violence intervention among those with higher, compared to lower, prosocial bystander attitudes? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of two beverage conditions (alcohol or control beverage) and those assigned to alcohol will complete the study on either the ascending or descending alcohol limb. Participants will project themselves into a heat-of-the moment, risky sexual violence scenario that will assess bystander barriers and behavioral intentions. Researchers will compare those assigned to the alcohol and control beverage condition and men/women to see if this impacts bystander barriers and sexual violence intervention.
