Using Alcohol and Sleep Sensors to Understand Blackout Risk in Young Adults’ Natural Settings (The Lights Out Study): Protocol for an Intensive Longitudinal Pilot Study
This study seeks to understand 2 key modifiable behaviors that may be associated with increased AIB risk by leveraging multiple forms of innovative measurement. The integration of ecological momentary assessments with 2 sensors to capture alcohol use and sleep also supports potential applications in future digital interventions. This study will further enhance our preliminary data on the feasibility and acceptability of these methods, providing opportunities for conducting future research on a larger scale.
