Project Name: Project AMPS
Principal Investigator: Christine Lee, PhD
Grant Title: Personalized mobile app intervention: Challenging alcohol expectancies to reduce high-risk alcohol use and consequences
Sponsor: National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism
Project Period: 4/1/2010-8/31/2022
Grant Number: 5R01AA016979
Project Coordinator: Theresa Walter
The goal of this project is to develop and test a 3-week mobile-app that tracks mood, alcohol use, alcohol expectancies, and alcohol-related consequences 2x a day and provides real-time personalized feedback using individuals’ daily experiences and intentions. The app is designed for students attending 2-year/community colleges and 4-year colleges. This work is significant because there is currently very little attention paid specifically for 2-year/community college students and this app provides real-time information on a platform that nearly 100% of young adults have and are accessing hourly.
