Summary

This study tests whether an app-based early intervention can help reduce alcohol use and posttraumatic stress symptoms in people who have recently experienced sexual assault. Participants are randomly assigned to receive different versions of the THRIVE app, which includes activity scheduling and strategies to reduce risky drinking. The goal is to find the most effective version of this preventative intervention.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
THRIVE app - a smartphone app with activity scheduling and protective behavioral strategies
What this could lead to
If effective, this app could provide a scalable, accessible early intervention to reduce alcohol misuse and PTSD symptoms in survivors of sexual assault.
What could go wrong
This is an early-stage trial, and the app is only available to study participants. Results may not generalize to all survivors, and the app's effectiveness is not yet proven.
