About the Course:

Despite research suggesting that parental involvement can affect alcohol involvement among adolescents, few studies have focused on parent-based alcohol prevention strategies among college undergraduates. This article reports the results of a randomized trial of a parent-based intervention (PBI) in a sample of college freshmen.

This course is based on the reading-based online, Parent-Based Intervention on Drinking Behavior Among Incoming College Freshmen created by Michael A. Ichiyama, Ph.D., and Diane P. Francis, M.P.H., Anne M. Fairlie, B.A., and Mark D. Wood, Ph.D., Rob Turrisi, Ph.D., and Anne E. Ray, B.S., and Louise A. Stanger, Ed.D. in 2009.
