Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Current primary outcome measures as of 17/02/2015: 1. Alcohol consumption (defined as self-reported consumption of =6 units in a single episode in the previous 30 days for males and =4.5 units for females) in school pupils (school year 9/S2 in the academic year 2012/2013) at + 33 months (T3) from baseline. This will be dichotomised at never/one or more occasions. 2. Alcohol-related harms as measured by the number of self-reported harms (harms caused by own drinking) in school pupils (school year 9/S2 in the academic year 2012/2013) at +33 months (T3) from baseline Previous primary outcome measures from 25/11/2013 to 17/02/2015: To ascertain the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of STAMPP in reducing alcohol consumption (frequency of consuming >5 drinks in a single episode in the previous 30 days) in second form pupils (aged at least 13 on 01/09/2012) at + 18 months after the intervention Original primary outcome measures: 1. Period prevalence of alcohol use - self-reported alcohol use in lifetime, last year and previous month 2. Amount and frequency of episodic alcohol use - number of drinks in 'typical' and last use episode, frequency of consuming >5 drinks in a single episode in the previous 30 days 3. The age of alcohol initiation - age at which a whole drink of alcohol was first consumed, not just a sip or a shared drink | — |

| Current secondary outcome measures as of 17/02/2015: 1. Alcohol consumption (defined as self-reported consumption of =6 units in a single episode in the previous 30 days for males and =4.5 units for females) in school pupils (school year 9/S2 in the academic year 2012/2013) at + 24 months (T2) from baseline. This will be dichotomised at never/one or more occasions. 2. Alcohol consumption (self-reported alcohol use in lifetime, last year and previous month; number of drinks in ‘typical’ and last use episodes; age of alcohol initiation, unsupervised drinking) in school pupils (school year 9/S2 in the academic year 2012/2013), at +24 (T2) months and + 33 (T3) months. 3. Alcohol-related harms as measured by self-reported harms caused by own drinking at +24 months (T2), and self-reported harms caused by the drinking of others at +24 (T2) months and + 33 (T3) months, in school pupils (school year 9/S2 in the academic year 2012/2013). Current secondary outcome measures from 25/11/2013 to 17/02/2015: 1. To ascertain the effectiveness and cost-effectiveness of STAMPP in reducing alcohol consumption (frequency of consuming >5 drinks in a single episode in the previous 30 days) in second form pupils (aged at least 13 on 01/09/2012) at + 6 months after the intervention. 2. To ascertain the effectiveness of STAMPP in reducing alcohol consumption (self-reported alcohol use in lifetime, last year and previous month; number of drinks in 'typical' and last use episodes; age of alcohol initiation, unsupervised drinking) in second form pupils (aged at least 13 on 01/09/2012) at + 6 months and + 18 months after the intervention. 3. To ascertain the effectiveness of STAMPP in reducing alcohol-related harms as measured by health service utilisation and self-reported harms (harms caused by own drinking and that of others) in second form pupils (aged at least 13 on 01/09/2012) a | — |
