SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This submission corresponds to the grant
number W81XWH-20-2-0039 funded by the Congressionally Directed Medical
Research Program and aligns with the Secretary of Defense's call for
novel programs to prevent sexual assault within the military. Given the
practical challenges of delivering tailored sexual assault prevention
to service members in-person, a computerized prevention program that
focuses on multiple risk factors for sexual aggression and sexual
victimization, while engaging all service members as active bystanders
to reduce risk for violence, addresses a significant gap in prevention
delivery. A normative survey will provide information about the
behavior and attitudes of Sailors regarding alcohol use and sexual
assault. Next, focus groups and interviews will be conducted to obtain
feedback about the content of the intervention and ways to adapt it for
Sailors. There is no standardized set of questions for the focus groups
or interviews, so they are not included in this information collection
request. However, interviewees and focus group respondents will be
selected based on their drinking habits, which will be determined by a
brief pre-interview/focus group survey. After interview/focus group
completion, a post-interview/focus group survey will be given to obtain
demographic and alcohol use information to be used as descriptive
information, as well as data from standardized measures that assess
respondents' opinions of the existing intervention. These two surveys
are included in this request. Data from the three surveys will be
incorporated into the intervention content and help generate an adapted
prototype of the sexual assault prevention program (+Change) for
Sailors. This study is a critical advancement in the prevention of
sexual assault in military service members.
