30 oktober 2026 bijgewerkt door: Randi Melissa Schuster, Massachusetts General Hospital

Development of a Drug Education Curriculum for Middle and High School Students

The goal of this pilot study is to measure the feasibility, sustainability, and acceptability of a drug education curriculum (IDECIDE) in middle and high students who have endorsed past-month substance use.The main question it aims to answer is:

1) What is the impact of iDECIDE on the the knowledge of drug effects and teen brain development, attitudes and perceptions of drug-related harms, and willingness to quit or reduce substance use?

Participants will be asked to participate in 4 sessions of the iDECIDE curriculum and complete surveys and interview questionnaires over the course of approximately 3 months.

Studie Overzicht

Gedetailleerde beschrijving

This study will be a one-arm pilot study enrolling approximately 100 middle and high school students who have endorsed substance use in the past month. Participants will be followed over 3 months. All participants will receive iDECIDE developed to provide behavioral support and psychoeducation via videoconference or in-person visits. The purpose of iDECIDE is to provide students with the knowledge and skills they need to make healthy decisions regarding substance use. Data collection will occur during seven visits over the span of approximately three months, including one baseline visit, four weekly visits during the intervention phase of the study, and then two follow-up visits. The follow-up visits will occur at approximately one week and one month following the end-of-intervention. Participants will complete questionnaires and assessments throughout the study. Primary outcomes (Knowledge of Drug Effects and Brain Development readiness to quit, readiness to reduce, perceptions of harm) will be assessed at visit 1 (baseline), visit 6 (one week follow-up), and visit 7 (one month follow-up). Participants will be compensated for session attendance.

Participants will…

  1. Receive 4 weekly sessions of the iDECIDE drug curriculum.
  2. Complete assessments and questionnaires, including self-reports of substance use.

iDECIDE is a 4-session drug education and diversion program that addresses topics such as the neurobiology and addiction, adolescent brain development, industry tactics, motives for using substances, risk and protective factors, identifying triggers, healthy alternatives, core values, and long-term goal setting. These topics are taught via facilitated discussions, videos, worksheets, and handouts. The iDECIDE drug curriculum will be delivered weekly for 4 weeks via videoconference or in-person visits. Each session typically takes 60-75 minutes. For this study, facilitators are members of study staff.

Uitkomstmaat
Maatregel Beschrijving
Tijdsspanne
Knowledge of Drug Effects & Brain Development
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, one-week follow-up, one-month follow-up

Knowledge of Drug Effects and Brain Development will be measured by number of items correct on a 25-item multiple-choice questionnaire that assesses knowledge taught in the iDECIDE curriculum, including neurobiology of addiction, side effects of substance, and industry tactics to market substances to young audiences.

Baseline, one-week follow-up, one-month follow-up
Readiness to Quit or Reduce Substance Use
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, one-week follow-up, one-month follow-up

Participants will complete a Readiness Ruler to determine how ready they are to quit and reduce their primary substance on a scale from 1 (not at all ready) to 10 (very ready).

Baseline, one-week follow-up, one-month follow-up
Perceived Harm of Substance Use
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, one-week follow-up, one-month follow-up

Tijdsspanne
Frequency of Substance Use
Tijdsspanne: Baseline, one-week follow-up, one-month follow-up

The Timeline Follow-Back (TLFB) will be used to measure number of days the participant used a substance, which substances were used, and the frequency of which substances were used. The initial TLFB at the baseline visit will measure substances used in the past 90 days. Participants will be prompted to share their substance use since their baseline and follow-up visits during the one-week and one-month follow-up visits, respectively.
