Study Background

Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin are investigating a program called CHOICES Teen, which aims to help young women aged 14 to 19 cultivate healthier habits.

The CHOICES Teen clinical trial aims to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention designed to promote healthy behaviors among young women aged 14 to 19. This study is particularly important as this age group faces numerous challenges related to health and well-being, making targeted interventions critical. Participants in the CHOICES-Teen 1 intervention, as well as those in the CHOICES-Teen 2 intervention group, will engage in four virtual sessions conducted via Zoom over the course of four weeks. This structured approach allows for flexibility while maintaining a focus on fostering healthier lifestyle choices.

Participation in the study requires a nine-month commitment, during which participants will undergo assessments at various intervals: at the start of the study, and again at three, six, and nine months. This comprehensive assessment schedule aims to track progress and evaluate the intervention’s impact over time. To incentivize full participation, young women who complete all components of the program and assessments will receive $200 in cash or a gift card. The assessments can be conducted either in person or virtually, ensuring accessibility and convenience for all participants.
