Project INTEGRATE

This research project involves integrative data analysis (IDA) of existing data from multiple NIH-funded clinical alcohol intervention trials within the college population, including more than 20,000 participants. The overarching goal is to develop a new body of knowledge with regards to the impact of college alcohol interventions beyond efficacy, including a better understanding of mechanisms of change, moderators of intervention efficacy, as well as efficacy of secondary outcomes (e.g., drug use). The analytic approach includes an analysis of raw data from existing studies drawing on recent advances in psychometrics, longitudinal data analysis, and intervention evaluation methodology. The combined existing data features a large sample from 22 studies of alcohol interventions for college students who were followed-up for a maximum period of 4 years post-intervention. The IDA proposed in this study is intended to emulate a planned, multi-site study from multiple independent studies that are not designed to be part of a planned, multi-site study but share a number of key design features in common with other studies.
