ed older versions of the SASSI\, but want to review and learn about the ch

The SASSI is a brief & easily administered psychological screening measure
that helps you identify both adult & adolescents who may have a substance
use disorder. The SASSI also provides information that is useful in treat
ment planning. The single page paper & pencil questionnaire (also availabl

group settings.
\nWith over 20
years in development & research\, the SASSI has an empirically tested ove

subtle questions that have no apparent connection to substance use\, allow
ing identification of individuals with alcohol & other drug problems even
if they do not acknowledge substance misuse themselves.
