Project IntERact Study

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Violence, Substance Use, Criminal Behavior

In brief

This study will use a randomized control trial design (RCT) to pilot test a multisession remote therapy behavioral intervention for risky firearm behaviors and associated behaviors/consequences among adolescents. The study will pilot a state-of-the-art intervention delivery approaches (e.g., remote therapy, smartphone-based APP intervention content delivery) for reducing violence and associated behaviors among urban youth. Given the significant morality and mortality associated with firearm violence, the study will have significant impact by identifying optimal intervention strategies for future large-scale behavioral intervention trials.
