ABSTRACT
AIM:
This study aimed to validate the CRAFFT diagnostic test, against the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fourth Edition, Axis 1-based diagnostic inventory in a Turkish population of adolescents.METHOD:
The 124 adolescents who were 15-18 years old were enrolled to this study. CRAFFT was self-administered. Interviews took approximately 30 minutes, including the DSM-IV diagnostic interview for alcohol/drug dependence.RESULTS:
The mean age of subjects was 16.653 years (minimum 15 years, maximum 18 years). A score of 2 or higher in part B was found to be optimal for detecting youths with substance dependence problems (sensitivity 0.82; specificity 0.88) and it was sufficiently discriminative.CONCLUSION:
The CRAFFT is a valid and reliable instrument for identifying Turkish-speaking youths at risk for substance use disorders.
