Study summary

This study is a single-arm feasibility trial evaluating a digital behavioral intervention designed to increase women's awareness of the relationship between alcohol use and breast cancer risk during routine breast cancer screening visits. The study will enroll 36 women aged 40 years or older. Participants will complete baseline measures and receive the Sobriety digital intervention during the clinic visit, followed by 4 weeks of continued access to the platform. Assessments will be completed immediately after the intervention and at 3 months to evaluate feasibility, acceptability, engagement, and changes in alcohol-related knowledge and behavior.

What researchers measure

Primary outcomes

  1. Recruitment Rate

    Percentage of eligible participants approached for participation who provide informed consent and enroll in the study. Recruitment feasibility will be considered achieved if at least 70% of eligible participants approached enroll in the study.

    Time frame: During the recruitment period

  2. Retention Rate

    Percentage of enrolled participants who complete the 3-month follow-up assessment. Retention feasibility will be considered achieved if at least 75% of enrolled participants complete the 3-month follow-up assessment.

    Time frame: 3-month follow-up

  3. Intervention Completion

    Percentage of enrolled participants who complete all core intervention modules. Intervention feasibility will be considered achieved if at least 70% of enrolled participants complete the core intervention modules.

    Time frame: Over the 3-month intervention period

  4. System Usability Scale (SUS) Score

    Participant-reported usability of the intervention as assessed using the System Usability Scale (SUS), a 10-item questionnaire with total scores ranging from 0 to 100. Higher scores indicate greater perceived usability. Acceptability will be considered satisfactory if the mean SUS score is at least 70.

    Time frame: 3-month follow-up

  5. Participants Rating the Intervention as Helpful or Very Helpful

    Percentage of participants who rate the intervention as "helpful" or "very helpful" on a participant satisfaction assessment. Acceptability will be considered satisfactory if at least 80% of participants rate the intervention as helpful or very helpful.

    Time frame: 3-month follow-up
