Study Summary
This trial studies two programs to help reduce/prevent alcohol misuse among youth patients. Parents/caregivers are encouraged to use an app to talk to their child about drinking. This could have important effects on how to prevent misuse in clinical settings.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for young people aged 12-17 who have used alcohol in the past year, are part of the Michigan medicine pediatric care system, and can receive texts. They must understand English and be able to consent. Their parents need to agree, and no siblings should already be enrolled.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two programs aimed at preventing or reducing youth alcohol misuse: one involves a web program only, while the other combines this with supportive text messages for eight weeks. Parents also use an app to discuss drinking with their child.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
There may not be direct side effects from participating as it involves digital interventions rather than medical treatments. However, participants might experience discomfort discussing personal habits or slight stress from regular engagement with the programs.
