WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Risk Factors Test

Risk Factors Diagnostic Evaluation Test

This questionnaire is designed to screen psychosocial risk factors associated with adolescents’ vulnerability to substance use. Risk Factors provides a brief, structured method for identifying areas of elevated risk that may warrant closer monitoring or preventive intervention.

The measure, developed by Thomas A. Wills, includes 54 items and typically requires about 10 minutes to complete. Items are intended to capture relevant aspects of adolescents’ environment, behavior, and relationships, supporting a focused profile of potential risk-related domains.

Risk Factors is commonly used in school or community settings to inform prevention planning and to guide follow-up assessment or supportive services when results suggest heightened vulnerability.
