Résumé :
Aims: A brief screen requiring 3-4 min administration time was developed to detect adolescents qualifying for current substance use disorder (SUD) and those who will subsequently manifest SUD by early adulthood.
Methods: The revised Drug Use Screening Inventory (DUSI-R; Tarter, 1990) was administered to 329 boys on three occasions (ages 12-14, 15-17 and 18-19 years of age). Principal components analysis yielded a core set of items to form three age-specific versions of the DUSI-R Quick Screen (DQS), consisting of the Substance Involvement Index and Problems Severity Index.
Results: Construct, concurrent and predictive validity of the DQS were in the good to excellent range. Sensitivity of the DQS at ages 12-14, 15-17 and 18-19 for detecting current SUD was 100%, 93% and 93%. The DQS at these ages predicted SUD by age 22 with 73%, 77% and 83% accuracy. Replication in another sample revealed sensitivity of 71% and 75% in 15-17 and 18-20 year old males.
Conclusions: The true positive rate of detecting current and future SUD suggests that the DQS is an efficient screen for identifying youths requiring treatment or secondary prevention.
