Interventions

  • Whole Selves — BEHAVIORAL
    Whole Selves is a brief online self-guided intervention addressing transgender/nonbinary young adults' experiences with alcohol use and romantic relationships. The intervention is delivered in a single session of approximately 40 minutes. Whole Selves employs principles of technology-adapted motivational interviewing (e.g., eliciting and strengthening participants' internal reasons for behavior change through interactive activities) as well as personalized feedback on participants' self-reported alcohol use and romantic relationship experiences. The intervention incorporates text and video narratives from transgender/nonbinary people sharing their own experiences with alcohol use and romantic relationships. Content will be tailored based on participants' current alcohol use and romantic relationship experiences.

Study Details

The objective of this study is to learn more about Whole Selves, an interactive online resource ("intervention") to help transgender and/or nonbinary young adults reflect on their experiences and goals related to both alcohol use and romantic relationships. Existing online interventions focused on alcohol use often aren't a good fit for trans/nonbinary people, and existing relationship education programs don't account for how being trans/nonbinary might influence someone's relationships. For these reasons, the investigator is working with trans/nonbinary young adults and other community stakeholders to create a new intervention specifically for trans/nonbinary young adults. The goals of this clinical trial are to: 1. Find out what transgender/nonbinary young adults think of the Whole Selves intervention in order to improve it 2. See whether the Whole Selves intervention seems to work as expected 3. Help the investigator make plans for a bigger clinical trial of the Whole Selves intervention, which could tell us how well it works In this study, participants will use the Whole Selves intervention; complete online surveys about themselves, their romantic relationship experiences, their mental health, their alcohol use; and provide feedback on the Whole Selves intervention.
