Résumé :
Preventing or mitigating substance use among youth generally involves 3 different intervention frameworks: universal prevention, selective prevention, and treatment. Each of these levels of intervention poses unique therapeutic and implementation challenges. Technology-based interventions provide solutions to many of these problems by delivering evidence-based interventions in a consistent and cost-effective manner. This article summarizes the current state of the science of technology-based interventions for preventing substance use initiation and mitigating substance use and associated consequences among youth.
KEY POINTS:
- Technology-based interventions are effective for preventing and treating substance use disorders.
- Technology is particularly suited to youth.
- Technology-based interventions are relevant at any stage in the development of a substance use disorder.
- Technology-based interventions provide solutions to extant problems of traditional interventions.
