Results showed that older adolescents were more likely to recommend the intervention and perceived its length as more appropriate. Adolescents engaging in binge drinking responded more positively to the design and videos, found the difficulty level more suitable, and required less assistance. Participants with a positive general evaluation of the program scored higher on most of the 21 usability items than those with a negative evaluation. Key areas for improvement, such as repetitive questions, technical glitches, and text readability, were identified and addressed.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This study highlights the value of a systematic feasibility process, rooted in evidence and informed by adolescents\u2019 perspectives, to enhance program usability.
