Personalized Feedback Intervention for Latinx Drinkers With Anxiety
Purpose
The purpose of this study is to develop, evaluate the acceptability/feasibility (Phase IA), and test (Phase IB) the effectiveness of a brief, integrated, single-session, computer-based, culturally adapted personalized feedback intervention (PFI) designed to enhance knowledge regarding adverse anxiety-alcohol interrelations, increase motivation and intention to reduce hazardous drinking, and reduce positive attitudes and intention regarding anxiety-related alcohol use among Latinx hazardous drinkers with anxiety.

Detailed Description
In the first phase, the investigators will collect qualitative and quantitative feedback from focus groups to refine intervention content and evaluate treatment acceptability and feasibility of a novel, brief, integrated, culturally adapted computer-based personalized feedback intervention (PFI). In the second phase, Latinx hazardous drinkers with clinical anxiety will be recruited and randomly assigned to either the refined culturally adapted anxiety-alcohol PFI (AA-PFI 2.0) or a control PFI (C-PFI). Initial screening will be conducted via telephone; baseline and post-treatment data will be collected in-person; and 1-, 3-, and 6-month follow-up data will be collected online remotely.
