What is the ADASI-PC? Adolescent Drug and Alcohol Screening Instrument for Primary Care Developed under a NIDA SBIR contract ADASI is a brief, self-administered, computerized drug and alcohol use and risk screening instrument. Target: Adolescents in community-based and healthcare settings (ages 12-15)

The ADASI Instrument 21 screening and 2 demographic questions (age and gender) Designed for use in waiting room or office Risk analysis: 10 questions highlight risk behaviors associated with drug and alcohol use (High and Low Risk) Drug and alcohol use levels: 11 questions screen for drug and alcohol use (No Use, Experimental Use, Dependence) Skip patterns

Risk Analysis Items In the past year: Has there been a significant period during which you were suspended, expelled, had multiple detentions, broke school rules, or had your parent(s)/guardian(s) contacted about your behavior? Have you regularly missed curfew, shoplifted, damaged property, or gotten into fights? Have your grades dropped a lot in two or more classes in school? Have people frequently offered you drugs or alcohol? Have you frequently gone to parties where there are drugs and/or alcohol?

Risk Analysis Items (cont’d) Have some of your good friends enjoyed getting drunk or high? Did you feel sad, blue, or depressed much of the time? Have you ever gotten a ride from someone who was drinking or using drugs? If given the opportunity this year, do you think you would try: drugs; cigarettes; alcohol? Before you finish high school do you think you will: drink alcohol; do drugs; smoke cigarettes?

Additional Components Motivational Messages (based on youth prioritization) Provider’s Guide (with Fact Sheets and Brief Interventions) Introductory Video Online courses ADASI Spanish

Specific Aims The Specific Aims of this study were as follows: Determining the validity coefficient between consecutive administrations of the ADASI and a comparable youth drug use screening instrument (POSIT) with youth ages 12 to 15 years visiting health clinics and/or health education centers. Determining the coefficient of stability between test-retest administrations of the ADASI at two time points. Determining the effectiveness of ADASI on self-reported health-related changes in youth behavior, knowledge, and attitudes. Determining the acceptability of and satisfaction with ADASI among target youth.

Provided parental informed consent Inclusion Criteria Visiting one of the participating health clinics or health education centers Between the ages of 11.5 and 15 Provided parental informed consent Able to provide locator information for tracking

Data Collection Time 1 Time 2 (1 week) Time 3 (30 days) Intake ADASI POSIT Parent background questionnaire Motivational message Posttest survey (feedback and intentions) Follow-up questionnaire (changes in substance use behavior or intentions, help-seeking, impact of ADASI)

Participant Demographics Youth Characteristics (n=166) Mean age in years (s.d.) 13 (1.2) % Female 50.6 Race/Ethnicity: % Black/African American % White % Other % Hispanic/Latina 95.8 0.6 3.6 6.6 % Suspended during last school year 42.2 % Ever tried cigarettes 23.5 % Ever tried alcohol % Ever tried marijuana 16.3 % Ever tried inhalants 2.4

Conclusions Preliminary evidence for adequate psychometric properties Good internal consistency Fair to good test-retest reliability (small number of scale items, instability of the trait measured, relatively young age of participants) Strong concurrent and external validity with significant correlations to multi-domain youth risk screening questions Effective in increasing youths’ perceived risks about ATOD use and their information-seeking behavior Significant reductions in current marijuana use

What’s Next? Plans for the future include: Further evaluation of the ADASI with a more diverse sample Evaluation of the Brief Interventions Evaluation of ADASI Spanish Enhancements to the “look and feel” of the instrument Packaging of the ADASI with other Danya screening instruments.
