“…Consistent with a previous study for Hungarian version [11], which found high correlation (r = 0.86) between the DUDIT and the DUDIT-E, the present study confirmed a good convergent validity. The strongest relationship was detected between the DUDIT and the N subscale of the DUDIT-E (r = 0.69, p < .001).…”

“…model in 105 patients admitted to an inpatient substance abuse treatment unit in Northern Norway [10]. The original study conducted by Berman et al [2] implicated that the P and N factors were both made up of four components, and the T factor has three components, although these components were not supported by later studies in different languages [10,11]. In the present study, a visual inspection of the scree plot revealed two components accounting for the majority of variance for all subscales (P, N, and T sections) before the components started to level off, and two components for each subscale reached the criterion of an eigenvalue greater than one.…”

“…To provide an in-depth assessment tool to further delineate substance use identified by DUDIT, Berman et al [2] developed the DUDIT-E [11]. Based on the identification of a possible substance abuse or dependence with the DUDIT, the DUDIT-E provides additional information to clinicians, which can be applied in clinical decision-making and in treatment planning.…”

“…Also together with DUDIT, DUDIT-E was successfully used in a web-based screening (n = 2361) in Sweden [8] and among patients (n = 185) who received inpatient substance use treatment in five different settings in Northern Norway [9]. Finally, Norwegian [10] and Hungarian [11] versions were validated among patients admitted to an inpatient substance abuse treatment unit and across diverse settings in populations of young drug users (n = 105 and n = 259, respectively).…”

Objective: Motivation is a widely used concept in substance use treatment, which is related to the change during treatment. The Drug Use Disorders Identification Test-Extended (DUDIT-E) is one of the instruments to measure motivation. Among clients who have been screened already for drug-related problems, DUDIT-E maps the frequency of illicit drug use (D), the positive (P) and negative (N) aspects of drug use, and treatment readiness (T). The aim of the present study was to evaluate the psychometric properties of the Turkish DUDIT-E in adult male patients with substance use disorder (SUD) in Turkey. Methods: We examined the psychometric characteristics of this instrument in a population of outpatients with SUD and who are under probation (n = 196). The participants were administered the Drug Use Disorders Identification Test (DUDIT), the DUDIT-E, and the Addiction Profile Index (API). Results: Cronbach's alpha coefficient was 0.96 for P score, 0.95 for N score, and 0.85 for T score. Principal component analysis supported construct validity for P, N, and T scores. The DUDIT-E subscales were mild to moderately correlated with the DUDIT and the API. Conclusions: The findings showed that the Turkish version of the DUDIT-E, when used together with the DUDIT, could effectively identify substance use problems in outpatients with SUD who are under probation.

“…The maximum score for the DUDIT is 44 points, with higher scores indicating greater dependence on drugs and lower scores indicating no or minimal drug use. Researchers (Berman et al, 2003;Matuszka et al, 2014;Voluse et al, 2012) have shown the DUDIT to be a psychometrically sound measure, with high reliability and validity ( > .80).…”

The aim in this study was to determine whether or not peer pressure and leisure boredom influenced substance use among adolescents in low-income communities in Cape Town, South Africa. Nonprobability sampling was used to select 291 adolescents aged between 16 and 18 years who were attending schools in 2 low-income communities in Cape Town. The research instruments were the Drug Use Disorders Identification Test, the Resistance to Peer Influence measure, and the Leisure Boredom Scale. Multiple regression analysis showed that the combined influence of peer pressure and leisure boredom predicted substance use among the adolescents. Of the two factors, peer pressure was the stronger predictor of substance use.

Examining the role of brooding, distress, and negative urgency in dysregulated behaviors: A cross‐sectional study in treatment‐seeking young people

Objective Dysregulated behaviors including substance use, disordered eating, and nonsuicidal self‐injury (NSSI) have significant negative implications for individuals and health systems. It is therefore paramount to understand factors influencing behavioral dysregulation, to inform prevention and treatment approaches. The literature suggests that distress and rumination (brooding) prompt individuals to engage in behavioral dysregulation for distraction (Emotional Cascade Model), although these concepts have limited investigation in clinical, treatment‐seeking samples, particularly alongside negative urgency. This cross‐sectional study sought to examine the relationships of brooding, distress, and negative urgency with behavioral dysregulation, as well as the moderating effect of negative urgency between brooding and behavioral dysregulation, in treatment‐seeking young people. Method A total of 385 treatment‐seeking young people completed cross‐sectional, self‐report measures of distress, rumination, negative urgency, and engagement in dysregulated behaviors (NSSI, alcohol use, drug use, binge eating, and purging) over the past 1−3 months. Results Structural equation modeling revealed that only negative urgency, and not brooding or distress, had a significant positive relationship with behavioral dysregulation. Negative urgency did not significantly moderate the relationship between brooding and behavioral dysregulation. Conclusions These findings reinforce the importance of considering negative urgency in the conceptualization, prevention, and treatment of behavioral dysregulation, and contribute to the knowledge of the relationship between brooding and various dysregulated behaviors within a treatment‐seeking sample.
