Web-based Intervention to Prevent Risky Driving

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
The specific aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of a web-based intervention to prevent risky driving with teen drivers licensed in the previous 90 days.

Detailed Description
-----------------
The specific aim of this study is to assess the feasibility of a web-based intervention to prevent risky driving teen drivers licensed in the previous 90 days. The intervention will focus on promoting teen driver attention to the roadway. The investigators will use a randomized controlled trial (RCT) experimental design for this feasibility study, randomizing to the intervention or control group. The investigators will complete a baseline assessment and follow up with participants at 1-month, 3-months and 6-months post-intervention delivery. This study will provide information on the feasibility of the web-based intervention to prevent risky driving and estimation of effect size of the intervention on simulated driving performance, self-reported driving behaviors, crash and citation data.

Arms and Interventions

| Participant Group/Arm | Intervention/Treatment |
| --- | --- |
| Experimental: Risky driving prevention<br>Web-based behavioral intervention to promote teen driver attention to the roadway, addressing mobile technology and passengers. | Behavioral: Risky driving prevention<br>* The web-based intervention to prevent risky driving targets knowledge, attitudes, perceived control and norms about driver inattention, with strategies to keep attention on the roadway.<br>|
| Experimental: Control group<br>Web-based behavioral intervention for healthy lifestyles. | Behavioral: Control group general health promotion<br>* The control group will receive a web-based intervention for general health promotion and is designed to enhance participants' knowledge and ability to reduce their risk of adverse health conditions including, obesity and heart disease.<br>|

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Proportion of Participants Randomized | Proportion of participants screened, enrolled and randomized | Baseline (Study Visit 1) | 
| Adherence | Adherence among the intervention and control group to the intervention. | Baseline (Study Visit 1) through completion of the intervention. | 
| Simulated Driving Performance | Difference between the intervention and control group on the simulated driving assessment (measures of driving performance during the simulated experimental drives). | Baseline (Study Visit 1) through Study Visit 3 | 
| Self-report Driving Behaviors | Difference between the intervention and control group on self-report measures of driving behaviors. | Baseline (Study Visit 1) through Study Visit 4 (around 6 months). | 
| Driving Citations and Crashes | Difference between the intervention and control group on driving citations and crashes. | Baseline (Study Visit 1) through Study Visit 4 (around 6 months). |
