Methods: The criteria were validated by comparing the CRAFFT scale to the gold standard for identifying substance abuse (i.e. the clinical interview). A diagnostic test model was used for calculating the scale's sensitivity, specificity and predictive values. Results: The test revealed 0.95 sensitivity, 0.83 specificity, 0.85 PPV and 0.94 NPV (x2=187.87 and p less than 0.0005) for identifying dysfunctional use (frequent use, abuse and dependence), having a >2 score. Conclusions: The scale was seen to have great usefulness for psychoactive substance use screening. A cut-off point of 2 differentiated functional from dysfunctional use.Universidad Nacional de Colombia20132020-05-26T00:00:01Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdf1240064https://repository.urosario.edu.co/handle/10336/23150reponame:Repositorio EdocUR - U.
