Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This pilot randomized controlled trial (RCT) will be conducted to evaluate the acceptability and feasibility of a digital tailored prevention tool (i.e., the Joint Effort mobile application) aimed at supporting university-level students into taking action on their cannabis use. The two main objectives of the proposed study are:

1. To assess the acceptability of the Joint Effort mobile application in terms of uptake, engagement and intervention appreciation.
2. To document the feasibility of the study processes in terms of online recruitment rate, adherence to online data collection methods, and attrition rate.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Joint Effort (mobile application)

The Joint Effort mobile application aims to support young adults into taking action on their cannabis use. Based on the Theory of Planned Behaviour, the content focuses on intention, attitude and perceived behavioral control. Various intervention methods and strategies are used to address these determinants (e.g., personalized feedback, persuasive communication, self-observation and activation of intention). The objectives includes: to allow the individual to become aware (or more aware) of their cannabis use, to support the individual's decision-making process of taking action on their cannabis use, to guide and support the establishment and sustainability of an action plan. An optional logbook-type feature (weekly journal of cannabis use) allows personalized monitoring and data collection throughout the course of the intervention.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Joint Effort

Intervention Type OTHER

The Joint Effort intervention is available in the form of an iPhone mobile application (running on iOS 13 and 14) in French language. It aims to support young adults in school who have used cannabis in the past month into taking action on their cannabis use.

Brief normative feedback and standard information

The comparator is composed of a a brief normative feedback regarding last month frequency of cannabis use and basic reliable non personalized information on lower-risk cannabis use (official public websites).

Group Type ACTIVE_COMPARATOR
