Summary

This study aims to create a large data repository by collecting smartphone data and daily surveys from 10,000 adults who use alcohol or drugs. Participants will use an app that tracks phone activity and location, and answer short surveys about mood and substance use. The goal is to help researchers learn why people drop out of treatment or return to substance use, with the hope of improving future care.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If successful, this repository could help researchers understand why people relapse or drop out of treatment, pointing toward better support strategies.
What could go wrong
This is an observational data collection study, not a treatment trial. It won't directly help participants and may not lead to immediate changes in care.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

* INCLUSION CRITERIA: In order to be eligible to participate in the repository, an individual must meet all of the following criteria: * Must understand and be willing to complete an online informed consent process. * Be an adult aged 18 or older. * Self-report alcohol or other drug use within the past 30 days. * Have a smartphone as their primary mobile phone. --For the AWARE app data monitoring procedure, there may be times during this study period where, due to technical or OS limitations, the app is only available to users of certain devices (e.g., Android, iOS). If there is such a limitation, this information will be evaluated during screening. For example, if the AWARE app is not available for iOS, then the screening form may exclude iPhone users for that time period where the limitation exists, if the only procedures offered are daily diary surveys and AWARE data monitoring. * Be willing to adhere to the procedures, such as downloading the AWARE app onto their smartphone and keeping it active throughout the data collection period, completing baseline questionnaires, daily diary EMAs, open-ended survey questions with the TTR Chatbot, uploading historical conversational AI data, and/or follow-up surveys. * Understand and write in English. --This exclusion criterion is included because future research on the data collected will include linguistic analysis. all linguistic analyses, we remove rare words (e.g., words must be said by at least 95% of participants)95. Additionally, there are cultural differences across languages and, thus, interpreting language results across more than one language becomes difficult.96 As a result, we must keep analysis limited to a single language (English), since words in other languages will not meet that criteria. * Live in the United States. EXCLUSION CRITERIA: An individual who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded from participation in this repository: 1\. Any impairment severe enough to preclude informed consent or valid self-report.
