Treatment and study plan

Brief Intervention Motivational Interviewing (BIMI) Intervention

Behavioral

BIMI is a 15-minute brief interview in person or via video chat with participating youth. The interview will be focused on discussing the impact of drinking alcohol on one's health and how to set personal goals so that alcohol use does not become a problem. A follow up phone or video call at 3 and 6 months post initial interview will also be conducted which will track on the progress of setting and keeping personal goals.

Tomando Buenas Decisiones (TBD) Intervention

Behavioral

The program is adapted from the Guiding Good Choices (GGC) program and will be conducted by a trained facilitator lasting for about 2 hours per session. The program discusses about the best ways to help one's child make good decisions with regards to avoiding alcohol, drugs, and other problem behaviors that may not be healthy to them as well as ways to have good communication and good connections within one's family.

Social Development Strategy (SDS) Intervention

Behavioral

SDS is a 2 hour broad-focused environmental intervention consisting of short presentations and workshops designed to provide skills and models for positive human interaction between employees to fellow employees, employees to their children and employees to their supervisors.

BTC Training Session

    Time frame: Pre-SDS Intervention, Post-SDS Intervention (2 hours)

    The efficacy of the SDS intervention is assessed via the SDS survey. The SDS survey is coded and scored by taking the average of all items in the scale. The higher scores are indicative of greater use of the SDS as an intervention strategy. The average scores are: minimum =1 and maximum = 4.

  4. Change in risk behaviors in BIMI Intervention Recipients

    Time frame: Baseline, 6 months
