Summary

This study aims to improve a short motivational conversation to better help young adults who were injured in assaults and also use alcohol or cannabis. Researchers will gather both interview and survey data from young adults who came to the emergency department after an assault and currently use alcohol or cannabis. Guided by a theory about risky behaviors, the study will focus on how confident young people feel about making changes to their alcohol and cannabis use, and how their friends and family influence their alcohol and cannabis use and involvement in injuries from assault. The team will follow a step-by-step process used by the NIH to adapt and test the improved motivational conversation in the emergency department.
