title: Trauma prevention: an evaluation tool for youth and alcohol trauma-prevention programs.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To evaluate the Student Alcohol Questionnaire (SAQ) for use drinking/driving prevention programs in college-age students.
  
  
  METHODS
  A pilot study of 39 students was conducted, which included a pre-test covering demographics and using the SAQ. A post-test was given as a program evaluation. The SAQ was repeated one month later.
  
  
  RESULTS
  At program completion, 40% of students stated that they would change behavior. The SAQ findings revealed no statistically significant changes in the pre- and post-tests.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The SAQ may be an effective tool for measuring prevention programs.
