abstract="It is important to develop and evaluate methods of identifying alcohol dependent patients and patients at risk of alcohol problems. The World Health Organisation recommends a 10-item questionnaire, AUDIT (Alcohol Use Disorders Identification Test), which assesses hazardous alcohol use, dependence symptoms, and harmful alcohol use. The article describes a Swedish version of AUDIT that has been psychometrically tested on a sample of patients admitted to a psychiatric emergency ward. Both internal consistency, reliability and validity were found to be satisfactory in terms of sensitivity and specificity in predicting DSM alcoholism diagnoses.<p /><p>Language: sv</p>",
