Summary

This study tested a program where parents of incoming college students received text messages with tips to talk to their kids about alcohol. The goal was to see if these messages could help prevent or reduce drinking among first-year students. About 276 parent-student pairs took part, with parents forwarding the texts to their teens during the first 10 weeks of school.
