The purpose of this study is to develop and examine a culturally adapted, brief, integrated, Spanish language mobile health application for the Android platform, optimized to deliver a personalized feedback intervention (PFI) designed to enhance knowledge regarding adverse anxiety-alcohol interrelations, increase motivation and intention to reduce hazardous drinking, and reduce positive attitudes and intention regarding anxiety-related alcohol use among Latinx hazardous drinkers with clinical anxiety.
Investigators will develop a culturally adapted, brief, single-session, Spanish language, PFI delivered via a mobile health application for the Android platform through an iterative approach using expert input and focus groups. Next, Latinx hazardous drinkers with clinical anxiety will assess program navigation and conduct usability testing. Finally, Latinx hazardous drinkers with clinical anxiety will be recruited to complete the final prototype of the mobile health application in order to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and initial effects. Initial screening will be conducted via telephone; baseline and post-treatment data will be collected in-person; and 1-week, 1-month, and 3-months follow-up data will be collected remotely.

| Aliento | Behavioral | Aliento is a culturally adapted, brief, personalized feedback intervention (PFI) to address alcohol misuse in the context of clinical anxiety delivered via a mobile application. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test | The Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test will be used to assess drinking quantity, craving, and related consequences to alcohol use. The 10 items are rated with various Likert-type scales. The measure produces a total score by adding all of the items of the measure with higher scores indicating greater problems with alcohol (possible range 0 to 40). | Change from Baseline Pre PFI Completion to 3-months Post PFI Completion |
| Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale | The 5-item Overall Anxiety Severity and Impairment Scale will be used to assess anxiety symptom severity and impairment. Each of the items is rated on a Likert-type scale ranging from 0 to 4. Items are summed to produce a total score (possible range 0 to 20). | Change from Baseline Pre PFI Completion to 3-months Post PFI Completion |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Motivation to Reduce Alcohol Consumption Scale | The 1-item Motivation to Reduce Alcohol Consumption Scale will be used to measure current motivation/intention to reduce alcohol. Participants will be asked to select the statement that best describes their motivation/intention to reduce drinking (e.g., "I really want to cut down on drinking alcohol and intend to in the next month"). Higher scores on this measure indicate greater motivation/intention to reduce alcohol consumption (possible range (0-7). |

| Modified Drinking Motives Questionnaire-Revised | The Modified Drinking Motives Questionnaire-Revised will be used to assess expectancies of drinking. For the current study, the 4-item "Coping-anxiety" subscale will be used as a measure of expectancies of drinking to reduce/cope with anxiety. The measure utilizes a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (almost never/never) to 5 (almost always/always). Scores are averaged with higher scores indicating greater expectancies of drinking to reduce/cope with anxiety (possible range 1 to 5). | Change from Baseline Pre PFI completion to Baseline Post PFI completion |
| Alcohol Attitudes Scale | The 7-item Alcohol Attitudes Scale will be utilized to measure maladaptive attitudes for drinking (e.g., "Drinking alcohol is good"). Items are rated on a Likert-type scale from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). Scores will be averaged to create a composite score (possible range 1 to 7). Higher scores indicate greater maladaptive attitudes for drinking. | Change from Baseline Pre PFI completion to Baseline Post PFI completion |
