This brief screening measure is designed to identify potential alcohol and other substance use risk in adolescents and young adults. The CRAFFT Screening Test (CRAFFT 2.1) is commonly used in clinical and school settings to support early detection and guide decisions about follow-up.

Developed by Knight, J., it consists of 6 items and typically takes about 2 minutes to complete. Items query substance use-related situations and consequences (e.g., use in a car, use to relax, use while alone, memory lapses, concerns expressed by others, and trouble related to use).

Scores are used to indicate whether additional assessment, brief intervention, or referral may be warranted. Results from the CRAFFT Screening Test (CRAFFT 2.1) should be interpreted in context of clinical interview findings and relevant developmental, medical, and psychosocial factors.
