New treatment option for Injury Prevention
Official title Changing Youth Narratives on Firearm Violence ("Run It Up") Intervention
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06940362
What this study is testing
- What it's testing
- The Run It Up project is an experimental, theory-driven effort to address a specific connection between structural factors, youth identity development, and violence, where structural factors in some communities may limit adolescent beliefs about potential life-trajectories ("possible selves"), and foreground potential trajectories that include violence as integral. The intervention seeks to counter that dynamic by: 1) identifying alternative, non-violent identity trajectories that have attributes meaningful for youth and actualizing those trajectories through a community support structure; and 2) developing and disseminating multiple media products featuring narratives about these alternative trajectories.
- You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug.
