Prior reports have indicated that the prevalence of alcohol-related problems in VA patients is significantly higher than that found in the general population. Prevalence rates, however, are likely to be affected by the screening instrument employed. A sample of 722 VA outpatients awaiting general medical and urgent care treatment was asked to complete two screening questionnaires: the World Health Organization's AUDIT and the brief MAST. Of 508 completed AUDITs, 55 (11%) scored above the cut-offs of 11 for harmful consumption, and 85 (17%) above the more liberal cut-off score of 8; whereas of 501 completed MASTs, 104 (21%) scored above the cut-off. Differences in identification rates are discussed. |
