A 14-item revision was designed with a representative sample of current cannabis users aged 13–32 years using IRT could not provide sensitivity or specificity [7]. The recent publication of the CPQ-A-S which was based on a school sample (14- to 18-year-olds) did not provide information on sensitivity and specificity [9].…”

A revised version of the CUDIT was tested in adolescents using Item Response Theory (IRT) analyses [7]. A further revision, the CUDIT-R, was validated in an adult clinical sample [8].…”

Para inclusão no MINI-RTM, este item foi adaptado para a frequência de uso de qualquer droga.…”
