Questionnaire Section/Question |
Purpose/Use |
Background Information
AUDADIS-V
- PRISM-Section 1 - Overview |
The purpose of the AUDADIS-V Background Information Section is to collect sociodemographic information that represents risk factors of adverse consumption patterns, alcohol use disorders and their associated disabilities. Sociodemographic information on education, marital status, work situation, income, general level of functioning (SF-12 Scale), permanent and temporary disability, divorce, religious service attendance and major recent life events will be measured. Height and weight are asked for the purpose of adjusting consumption levels by body water. Questions concerning childhood obesity status and physical activity are included among other risk factors for heart disease and diabetes measured in this study. Additional items measuring nativity, generational status, health insurance sources and health care discrimination due to weight or disability will be used to explain the potential origins of health disparities. The purpose of the PRISM Overview section is to gather a smaller subset of sociodemographic factors than the AUDADIS-V including age, race-ethnicity, marital status and history, education, military service, employment status, whether ever incarcerated and treatment for physical or psychological problems. |
Alcohol Consumption
AUDADIS-V - PRISM-Section 2A |
The purpose of the AUDADIS-V Alcohol Consumption Section and PRISM Alcohol Screening Section is to measure important dimensions of beverage-specific alcohol consumption including usual and heaviest quantity and frequency and duration of drinking during the last year and during the period of lifetime heaviest drinking. Understanding the relationship between alcohol consumption and alcohol use disorders and related disabilities will facilitate the explanation of the initiation and progression of each condition. |
AUDADIS-V – Q. 1-3 PRISM – Q. 1a-1d |
These questions, in combination, are used to classify respondents by drinking status. Three types of drinkers are defined longitudinally: (1) current drinkers-respondents who had at least 1 drink in the past year; (2) ex-drinkers-respondents who did not drink in the last year, but did drink in the past; and (3) abstainers-respondents who did not drink on a lifetime basis. |
AUDADIS-V – Q. 4a-12c PRISM – no corresponding items |
These questions are used to measure non-beverage-specific and beverage-specific quantity, frequency, container size, and ethanol content, for wine, beer and liquor in the past 12 months. The duration of usual alcohol consumption levels reported for the last 12 months is measured as well as the age of onset of drinking, context of drinking and binge drinking. Brand information is requested in order to refine the ethanol content parameters of beverage-specific volume intake measures only. |
AUDADIS-V – Q. 13-20c PRISM – Q. 2a-2e |
These questions measure usual and heaviest consumption levels and duration of heaviest drinking episode in one’s lifetime. The purpose of these questions is to identify current drinkers who also drank heavily at some time in their lives. |
Medicine/Drug Use AUDADIS-V - Section 3B PRISM-Section 3B AUDADIS-V – Q. 1a-7 PRISM-Q. 1a -5j |
The purpose of these sections is to collect information on use, onset, quantity and frequency of ten medicine/drug classes (sedatives/tranquilizers, painkillers, marijuana, cocaine/crack, stimulants, club drugs, hallucinogens, inhalants/solvents, heroin and other). |
AUDADIS-V – Q. 8-17 PRISM – no corresponding items |
These questions inquire about frequency of needle sharing and injection drug use, both of which are risk factors that exacerbate drug use disorders. These variables are also related to the risk of developing HIV. |
Tobacco Use AUDADIS-V - Section 3A PRISM-Section 3A |
This AUDADIS-V section inquires about use of cigarettes, cigars, pipes, snuff and chewing tobacco. The PRISM section asks about the use of cigarettes only. |
AUDADIS-V – Q. 1a-7 PRISM – Q. 1-2h2 |
These questions ask about onset, frequency, quantity, and duration of tobacco use, including daily use. |
THE AUDADIS-V AND PRISM COLLECT DATA FOR 2 DISTINCT TIME PERIODS: (1) PAST 12 MONTHS; AND (2) BEFORE 12 MONTHS AGO. |
|

This section was also designed to derive a continuous scale of depression symptoms. Information on these nine symptom groups is elicited for worst period of depressed mood. Note that each symptom must be present nearly everyday for at least two weeks. This level of severity is necessary in order to differentiate serious depression-related symptoms from normal, often transient feelings related to depressed mood and associated experiences such as sadness. |

This section was also designed to derive a continuous scale of mania symptoms. Information on these symptom groups is elicited for the respondent’s worst period of high mood. A similar, but milder disorder, referred to as hypomania, also is measured in this section and can be distinguished from the more severe manic syndrome by the absence of social/occupational dysfunction and treatment related to the disturbance. |

Social
Situations AUDADIS-V – Section 7 PRISM – Section 9 |
The purpose of these sections is to measure episodes of social phobia, another condition shown to be related to alcohol use disorders. The essential feature of this disorder is a persistent fear of one or more situations in which the person is exposed to the scrutiny of others and fears that he or she may do something or act in such a way that would be embarrassing or humiliating. |
AUDADIS-V – Q.1a-1p PRISM – Q.1a-1p2 |
These questions operationalize the persistent and unreasonable fear of doing something or acting in such a way as to cause embarrassment or humiliation.

AUDADIS-V – Q.2-10 PRISM – Q.2a-6b |
These questions determine if two additional criteria for social phobia are met. Specifically, whether exposure to the feared situation almost invariably provokes anxiety, whether the person recognizes that the feared situation is excessive, and whether the feared situation is avoided or else endured with intense anxiety or distress, or whether the fear is out of proportion to the actual danger of the situation. |
