About this trial

Whole Selves is a novel print and online intervention using motivational interviewing principles and personalized feedback to address young adults' alcohol use and romantic relationship functioning. In this study, the investigators will conduct user testing interviews (online and in-person) with 10 young adults to obtain feedback on the Whole Selves intervention prototype, thereby improving its usability, relevance, and user engagement. The investigators will then conduct a single-arm feasibility study of Whole Selves with 107 young adults in order to (1) assess the intervention's acceptability and potential mechanisms and (2) assess feasibility and parameters for a future randomized trial.
