ADAS Core Measures Short Form
The ADAS Core Measures Short Form is RMBSI’s
newest survey offering. It was created in response to customer requests for
a short survey that would require very little class time, but that would
still cover key evaluation topics. It includes only 12 questions and
requires approximately 5 to 10 minutes for students to complete.
CSAP "Core Measures"
The ADAS Core Measures Short Form
covers the five "core measures" recommended by the
Center for Substance Abuse
Prevention for evaluation of prevention efforts. CSAP recommends that
evaluation surveys should include questions about marijuana, alcohol, and
tobacco, and should ask about:
- use-rates in the last 30 days
- age of first use
- perceived harm
- perceived availability
- perceived disapproval of ATOD use
All of these measures are included in the
ADAS Core Measures Short Form. If you need additional questions, please read
about the standard Adolescent ADAS and
Prevention Planning Survey, or contact us
about survey customization.

Reliability & Validity
The questions on the ADAS Core
Measures Short Form are all taken from the Adolescent ADAS or Prevention
Planning Survey. We are as yet unable to offer any information on
reliability/validity of the individual items when used in this new format.
However, these questions have successfully been used with a large and
diverse population over many years in the complete ADAS and PPS surveys. The
scales from which these items have been taken have consistently demonstrated
high reliability and validity.
Cost and Ordering
The ADAS Core Measures Short Form
costs $1.00 per survey plus a $150 fee for each report. If administering
this survey as a pre/post evaluation, you will need to order one pre-test
report and one post-test report. The report will consist of 11 tables.
To order, please call 1-800-447-6354 and speak to Patti Waters.
