This trial is for young adults aged 18-30 who are currently in a romantic relationship, have a history of intimate partner violence (IPV) perpetration within the last three months, and frequently consume alcohol. Participants must be willing to receive text messages for 30 days and have had at least two heavy drinking episodes in the past month.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests a just-in-time text messaging intervention aimed at reducing IPV when participants are likely to drink alcohol. It will assess if receiving specific types of messages before drinking can help lower both alcohol use and IPV incidents among men and women at risk.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this intervention involves receiving text messages rather than medication or medical procedures, traditional side effects are not expected. However, there may be emotional or psychological impacts from engaging with content about emotion regulation and aggression.
