Résumé
Le cannabis est la drogue illicite la plus souvent consommée chez les jeunes adultes. Son usage est associé à l’échec et à l’abandon scolaire.
L’utilisation de plateformes Web est de plus en plus populaire pour intervenir auprès de ces jeunes. Cet article a pour objectifs de présenter la méthodologie utilisée et les résultats de chaque étape de développement d’une plateforme Web qui vise à réduire l’usage de cannabis chez les jeunes adultes qui retournent à l’école.
L’intervention mapping a servi de guide pour le développement de cette plateforme. Les déterminants du problème sont d’abord documentés. Ces informations sont ensuite utilisées pour le développement d’une matrice d’objectifs et pour le choix des méthodes d’intervention. L’implication des populations cibles et des partenaires ainsi que le devis d’évaluation sont finalement décrits.
Sept séquences de cinq expositions brèves à des messages éducatifs sur l’ordinateur ont été développées pour permettre aux jeunes de reconnaître leur vulnérabilité par rapport à certaines situations à risque de consommer et pour les aider à prendre la décision de réduire ou d’arrêter leur consommation. Différentes méthodes d’apprentissage sont utilisées pour présenter les messages éducatifs aux jeunes, notamment le tailoring et l’apprentissage par modèle.
L’intervention mapping a été utile pour lier le savoir des populations visées aux connaissances théoriques et empiriques. Un projet pilote est actuellement évalué pour vérifier l’impact de cette intervention sur l’usage de cannabis chez les jeunes adultes.

Abstract
Cannabis is the most commonly used illicit drug among young adults. Its use is associated with academic failure and school dropout.
Web platforms are an increasingly popular way to intervene with young people. The goal of this article is to present the methodology and results of each step in the development of a Web platform to reduce cannabis use among young adults returning to school.
Intervention mapping was used as a guide in developing this intervention. The determinants of the problem were documented first. This information was used to develop a matrix of objectives and to choose intervention methods. Lastly, priority population and partner involvement are described, along with the evaluation design.
Seven sequences of five brief onscreen presentations were developed to help young people recognize risk situations for cannabis use and make the decision to deal with these situations and reduce or abstain from use. Several methods were used to create intervention content including tailored, feedback and modeling.
Intervention mapping allowed us to connect community knowledge to theory and empirical findings. A randomized trial is currently underway to verify the effectiveness of this intervention on cannabis use among young adults.

Resumen
El cannabis es la droga ilegal que los jóvenes adultos consumen con más frecuencia. Su uso está relacionado con el fracaso en los estudios y la deserción escolar.
La utilización de plataformas Web es cada vez más popular para intervenir ante estos jóvenes. Este artículo se propone presentar la metodología utilizada y los resultados de cada etapa del desarrollo de una plataforma Web destinada a reducir el uso del cannabis entre los jóvenes adultos que regresan a la escuela.
El mapping de la intervención ha servido como guía para el desarrollo de esta plataforma. En primer lugar, se documentan los determinantes del problema. Estas informaciones se utilizan luego para el desarrollo de una matriz de objetivos y para la elección de los métodos de intervención. Se describe finalmente la participación de las poblaciones beneficiarias y de los actores intervinientes y las especificaciones de la evaluación.
Se desarrollaron siete secuencias de cinco exposiciones breves a mensajes educativos por computadora destinados a facilitar en los jóvenes el reconocimiento de su vulnerabilidad con respecto a ciertas situaciones en las que existe el riesgo de consumir, para ayudarlos a tomar la decisión de reducir o detener el consumo.
Se utilizan diferentes métodos de aprendizaje para presentar los mensajes educativos a los jóvenes, principalmente el tailoring (personalización) y el aprendizaje por modelos.
El mapping de la intervención ha sido útil para vincular el saber de las poblaciones destinatarias a los conocimientos teóricos y empíricos. Se está evaluando en este momento un proyecto piloto para verificar el impacto de esta intervención sobre el uso del cannabis en los jóvenes adultos.
