Alcohol & Mobile Phone Study to Reduce High-risk Alcohol Use and Consequences

Participants randomized to the intervention condition will receive daily intervention messages two times a day for three weeks in the mobile app. The intervention uses participants' own daily responses to personalize messages, when appropriate, that challenges their personal expectations of alcohol's positive effects on mood, social facilitation, and tension reduction, as well as aggression and risk-taking. The intervention messages also focus on intentions to drink and pharmacologically-delayed negative effects. Intervention Messages in general will include feedback based on selected assessment items, weekly summaries generated from the daily assessments, general psycho-educational messages and videos about alcohol, and a toolbox with supplemental information (e.g., personal BAC calculators, resources).
