Detaljert beskrivelse
Freshman college students at Northwestern University will be cluster randomized to two groups based on their dorm. The intervention for one group will target smoking, physical activity, BMI and consumption of fruits and vegetables. The intervention in the second group will target traveling behavior, sexual risk behaviors, sunscreen use and hydration. Baseline health and lifestyle measures will be assessed for each participant prior to intervention. Health assessments will measure height, weight, fasting glucose, total cholesterol and carbon monoxide. The lifestyle measure will ask questions about physical activity, diet, alcohol and tobacco use, safe sex practices, driving habits, and sunscreen use. These same measures will be repeated during the fall of the students' sophomore and junior years.
Participants will be given a mobile application and encouraged to track some behaviors. In addition, participants will be asked to answer weekly questions regarding health behaviors.

Eksperimentell: Cardiovascular Health
Participants will be given the results of their health assessment and feedback regarding their health behaviors and overall health.
Recommendations for change will be given if warranted.
Participants will download the study's mobile health application on their smartphone.
They will then be asked to report once a week about their health behaviors on the application.
Participants will also be asked to self-monitor health behaviors that are not already at ideal levels using the study application (environmental cues).
Participants will be asked to join a secret Facebook group where informational materials will be posted, participants can post about study health behaviors and social interaction around health behaviors can occur (social support and environmental cues).
