(P24) Text Message Delivery of Harm Reduction Messaging for Alcohol-related Sexual Violence: A Randomized Control Trial

Poster Winner
This study examines the effectiveness of a text message-based intervention in addressing alcohol-related sexual violence among college students, demonstrating high engagement and retention rates in a pilot randomized control trial. Funded by the NIH, the research underscores the potential of text messaging as a feasible tool for harm reduction in sexual violence prevention.

Learning Outcomes:

Increased knowledge about:
  • the methods used, including baseline measures of alcohol use, sexual violence harm reduction, and sexual assault and consent knowledge and behaviors, as well as the randomization process for the 12-week interventions.
  • feasibility metrics used in the study, such as enrollment completion rates, consent and baseline measure completion rates, retention rates, and response rates to text message prompts.
  • how the pilot trial successfully recruited and retained students and anticipate future analysis to optimize messaging and plans for a full-scale trial to assess efficacy.
