WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Personal Risk Factors Assessment Test

addiction deviant behavior drug addiction

This questionnaire is designed to identify psychosocial correlates associated with adolescents’ vulnerability to initiating psychoactive substance use. Risk Factors is intended for use in school or clinical settings to support prevention planning and targeted follow-up when indicated. It was developed by Thomas A. Wills.

The measure includes 53 items and typically takes about 10 minutes to complete. It can be administered in age-appropriate forms to align item content with developmental stage. Risk Factors is used to characterize areas of potential risk or environmental influence and to inform monitoring, consultation, and referral decisions; results should be interpreted in context with other clinical and educational information rather than as a standalone diagnosis.
