Mobile Intervention for Black Individuals with Hazardous Drinking and Anxiety

This study is testing a mobile application designed for Black individuals who engage in hazardous drinking (drinking too much alcohol) and also experience clinical anxiety. The app provides personalized feedback to help you understand how anxiety and alcohol use are connected, and to help you reduce your drinking. To join, you must be 21 or older, identify as Black or African American, have a hazardous drinking pattern, experience clinical anxiety, and own a smartphone. The study will measure if the app helps reduce alcohol use (using the Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test) and anxiety (using the Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale) over three months. The current recruitment status is unclear, but the study plans to enroll 50 participants.

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). A higher score indicates a worse outcome.

  • 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). A higher score indicates a worse outcome.
