Explain why you chose each source. Finally, provide a rationale for the number of sources you recommend.Review the article “Screening for Alcohol Problems: What Makes a Test Effective?” (See attachment)

Screening tools are not designed to make diagnoses. They can give evidence that a problem exists. However, there is no guarantee that one screening tool or even one assessment or type of data will yield the necessary data to inform the addictions professional about a potential treatment plan and next steps. This is why addictions professionals may have to seek multiple (also known as multimodal) data sources from which to elicit sufficient data on an individual.

In this Discussion, you will consider what you might do in a hypothetical situation in which a client’s scores on a screening tool are insufficient for the purposes of interpretation.

To prepare:

Review the article “Screening for Alcohol Problems: What Makes a Test Effective?” (See attachment)

Review the data collected for the diagnostic summary for Jane Roberts (pseudonym “Patty”) in Chemical Dependency Counseling: A Practical Guide, Appendix 6 (pp. 262–263) (See below for Jane Roberts diagnostic case summary)
