As with the AUDIT, items 1 to 9 are scored on a 0 to 4 scale, with the final two questions scored 0, 2, 4. The maximum score is 44. Scoring guidelines suggest that a score of 6 or more among men, and 2 or more among women, may be indicative of drug-use-related problems. A score of 25 points or more, regardless of sex, is strongly indicative of dependence [522]. The DUDIT is included in Appendix X. Download section Previous Next
