Effectiveness of the SASSI –3 in Screening for Substance Abuse Among Persons with Traumatic Brain Injury
Abstract:
The purpose of the current study is to assess the validity of a screening instrument widely used in addictions treatment (the Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory or "SASSI-3" 2), when applied to adults with recent brain injuries. This instrument was developed using empirical methods and contains scales that are subtle indicators of substance abuse. The SASSIÂ’s accuracy will be based on data collected from 140 subjects recruited during acute rehabilitation, and the accuracy of its decision rules evaluated via comparison with the determination of a clinician trained in chemical dependency/abuse assessment
