This research will evaluate a new intervention that integrates evidence-based alcohol intervention strategies and promising sexual assault prevention strategies with the goal of decreasing sexual aggression among men who report heavy drinking; a particularly high risk group. Specifically, this study will conduct a randomized controlled pilot trial with college men who report heavy drinking to demonstrate the feasibility and acceptability of the proposed intervention. The main questions the study will answer are: 1) what is the feasibility of the recruitment plans, research design, intervention training methods, and delivery of the program?; and 2) does the intervention, relative to a mindfulness-based control condition, produce reductions in the quantity and frequency of alcohol use, perpetration of sexual aggression, and attitudes associated with sexual aggression over the 2- and 6-month follow-up. Follow-up assessments are completed at 2- and 6-months following the program. The intervention is compared to the mindfulness-based control group.

| Sexual aggression perpetration | Assessed via the sexual experiences survey. Scored based on frequency and severity (Minimum = 0, Maximum = 63). Higher scores mean worse outcomes. | Change in severity and frequency in comparison to control at 6-months. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Protective behavioral strategies | Assessed via the Self Control Questionnaire (Minimum = 37, Maximum = 185). Higher scores mean more positive outcomes. | Change in protective behavioral strategy use in comparison to control at 6-months. |
| Perceived peer drinking norms |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Motivation to change | Assessed via the Contemplation latter (Minimum = 0, Maximum = 10, higher scores are better outcomes). | Change in motivation relative to control from baseline to immediately after the session. |
