Mobile App for Latinx Hazardous Drinkers With Clinical Anxiety
This study is testing a mobile app called Aliento for Latinx individuals who drink too much alcohol (hazardous drinking) and also have clinical anxiety. Aliento is a personalized program delivered through a mobile app that aims to help you understand how anxiety and alcohol affect each other, and to reduce hazardous drinking. To join, you must be 21 or older, identify as Latinx or Hispanic, speak Spanish fluently, have hazardous drinking patterns and clinical anxiety, and own an Android smartphone. The study will measure changes in alcohol use and anxiety levels over three months. The current status of this study is unclear, and it plans to enroll 50 people.

What this trial measures
- Alcohol Use Disorders Identification TestChange from Baseline Pre PFI Completion to 3-months Post PFI Completion
The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test will be used to assess drinking quantity, craving, and related consequences to alcohol use. The 10 items are rated with various Likert-type scales. The measure produces a total score by adding all of the items of the measure with higher scores indicating greater problems with alcohol (possible range 0 to 40).
- Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment ScaleChange from Baseline Pre PFI Completion to 3-months Post PFI Completion
The 5-item Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale will be used to assess anxiety symptom severity and impairment. Each of the items is rated on a Likert-type scale ranging from 0 to 4. Items are summed to produce a total score (possible range 0 to 20).
