Trial Outcomes & Findings for Alcohol Impaired Driving in the Natural Environment (NCT NCT03503396)

NCT ID: NCT03503396

Last Updated: 2023-05-03

Results Overview

Change in number of times driven after drinking per week from pre (4 week TLFB) to post (2 week TLFB). A Timeline Followback (TLFB) is an interview where the participant self-reports their drinking behavior including: where they were drinking, how much they drank of what over what period of time, what location they went to next, how they got there.

Measure
BAC Feedback
Participants will receive a warning when their BAC is above a set limit (cutpoint is not disclosed by well below legal limit). Warning will notify them that their results indicate it is not safe for them to drive. BAC Driving Feedback/Warning: Participants will receive a warning at a set BAC limit, indicating they are too impaired to drive.
No Feedback
Participants will not receive any information on their BAC from their device. No Feedback: Participants will receive no information about BAC, but will still complete study assessments and provide breath samples during drinking sessions.

Alcohol Impaired Driving Behavior

Trial period
36 Count of driving episodes after drinking
29 Count of driving episodes after drinking

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Self-reported current perception (i.e., "right now")

Rating of danger of driving after receiving warning. Participants were asked to rate the perceived dangerousness of driving during drinking episodes by asking them to "indicate how dangerous you feel it would be for you to drive "right now"" Responses are recorded on a 1 (not at all dangerous) to 10 (extremely dangerous) visual analogue scale.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 2 weeks of study intervention

Outside of the intervention effect, observational data will be used to test hypotheses about proximal predictors of driving behavior.

OTHER_PRE_SPECIFIED outcome

Timeframe: 2 weeks of study intervention

Outside of the intervention effect, observational data will be used to test hypotheses about whether all participants report reduced driving after drinking and increase perceive risk of driving after drinking during the intervention period.
