Men, Mood, and Attention Study: Examination of Alcohol, State Anger, and Emotion Regulation Sexual...

Alcohol IntoxicationAnger

Given the public health and social relevance of sexual aggression and the gap in the extant literature regarding state anger, emotion regulation, alcohol, and sexual aggression, the present study will contribute to our understanding of emotion regulation's role in sexual aggression perpetration. The proposed 2-year research plan will examine the effects of alcohol intoxication, state anger, and emotion regulation on men's sexual aggression intentions. This study will recruit non-monogamous, men (individuals who identify their gender as male and whose biological sex is male) who have sex with women, ages 21-35. While more research on female perpetrators is needed, the proposed study will exclusively recruit males for the following reasons: 1) the scientific literature indicating the majority of sexually aggressive acts are perpetrated by men; and 2) the current sexual aggression analog has not been piloted with female participants and would require preliminary experiments to determine its appropriateness. The study will utilize a 2x2 design in which participants are randomized to beverage condition [alcohol (target BAC= .08gm%) or control (no alcohol control)] and an emotion induction (anger induction or control). The outcomes will be assessed using a sexual aggression analog which participants will complete on the descending limb of alcohol intoxication and indicate the likelihood that they would engage in various sexually aggressive acts. The study also includes self-report measurements of state anger and emotion regulation to explore emotion regulation as a moderator in the associations among alcohol intoxication, state anger, and sexual aggression intentions.

Stop-Service to Obviously-Impaired Patrons

Intoxication Alcohol

The Responsible Retailing Forum ("RRF") seeks to develop a new intervention, Stop Service to Obviously- Impaired Patrons ("S-STOP"), to reduce the incidence and harm associated with overservice of alcohol. Modeled after RRF's effective program to reduce alcohol sales to minors using Mystery Shopper feedback on staff ID-checking conduct, SSTOP would (1) conduct "Pseudo-Intoxicated" Mystery Shop" ("P-I/MS") inspections of serving establishments, employing actors who seek to purchase an alcohol beverage while showing obvious signs of intoxication, (2) provide licensees with confidential feedback on actual staff conduct and a video link to view the behavior of the P-I/MS that visited their establishments, (3) provide staff with brief online training in the recognition and skillful refusal of service to intoxicated patrons, and (4) provide communities with a measure of the prevalence of overservice. The proposed study will: (1) determine the effectiveness of S-STOP in improving recognition and refusal to serve an obviously- impaired customer. To do this, we will implement S-STOP in 10 pairs of demographically matched college and university communities, employing a cross-over design. After a 3-month baseline, we will implement S- STOP in one community in each pair (Cohort 1), while the second community serves as a control (Cohort 2). After 6 months, we will end S-STOP in Cohort 1 communities but continue inspections to measure the effects of decay; and we will begin S-STOP in Cohort 2. (2) examine how licensees utilize the S-STOP program and the extent to which utilization moderates the effectiveness of the program. To do this, we will measure the number and percentage of managers who visit the S-STOP website and register their staff for training, measure the number of staff that complete the training, and conduct analyses to investigate the dose-response relationship between utilization of the S-STOP program and likelihood of overservice. (3) investigate why some owner/managers did not participate in S-STOP. To achieve this, we will interview 20 owner-managers who did not access the S-STOP website.

Residual Effects of Intoxication on Student Performance

Alcoholic IntoxicationNeurobehavioral Manifestations

The primary goal of the study is to assess the residual effects of heavy drinking on academic performance. The investigators will also explore whether these effects differ by family history of alcohol abuse and hangover symptoms, as well as compare males and females with respect to these effects. The primary hypothesis is that intoxication (0.10 g% blood alcohol concentration [BAC]) with an alcoholic beverage impairs next-day academic performance, as measured by scores on quizzes, standardized academic achievement tests, and standardized neurobehavioral assessments. The secondary hypothesis is that family-history-positive individuals will show a greater performance decrement the day after heavy drinking than family-history-negative individuals.

Smartphone-paired Breathalyzers and Loss- and Gain-framed Texts for Reducing Drinking and Driving...

Alcohol DrinkingAlcohol Intoxication6 more

This project aims to demonstrate the feasibility of a scalable behavioral intervention using smartphone-paired breathalyzers and text message aimed at reducing drinking and driving among individuals who report heavy drinking. All participants receive a smartphone breathalyzer to provide feedback on their estimated blood alcohol level. The intervention compares loss- and gain-framed messages that make the consequences of drinking and driving more salient to standard messages not to drink and drive.

Family Based Prevention of Alcohol and Risky Sex for Older Teens

Alcohol DrinkingAlcohol Intoxication11 more

An online, interactive web-based program for older teens and their parents is designed to address teen alcohol use and teen relationships. The parent-teen dyad both participate in the web-based program and engage in off-line discussion activities. This intervention promotes communication skills, refusal skills, and helps teens consider how to make healthy choices. A total of 411 family dyads (one parent, one teen) were recruited.

WayToServe Español: Online Responsible Beverage Service Training for Spanish-Speaking Servers

Alcoholic Intoxication

Responsible Beverage Service Training (RBS) has been shown to be effective and recent research by this research team has shown that online RBS training (WayToServe®) was more effective, particularly over time, than usual and customary (UC) RBS training by live trainers. However, one growing segment of alcohol servers and sellers has been neglected in RBS training efforts: Hispanic primarily Spanish-speaking servers in predominantly Spanish-speaking premises. This project will develop and test the first online RBS training for predominantly Spanish-speaking servers, WayToServe Español, which is culturally and linguistically appropriate and will fill a gap in evidence-based alcohol prevention interventions for this underserved population.

Using Imaging to Assess Effects of THC on Brain Activity

Intoxication AlcoholIntoxication THC1 more

This study will assess effects of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and THC + alcohol in marijuana users on prefrontal brain activity, using functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) during resting state and during memory task performance. Participants will complete fNIRS testing 120 minutes following THC or identical placebo (Phase 2A), or THC/ethanol, THC/placebo ethanol, placebo THC/ethanol, and placebo THC/placebo ethanol (Phase 2B), and oxygenated hemoglobin (HbO) concentration will be measured.
