The Drug Abuse Screening Test (DAST-10) is a widely used self-report tool designed to quickly identify potential drug-related problems in adults. This confidential calculator provides a swift screening based on your honest responses, helping you understand your risk level for substance abuse and when it might be beneficial to seek professional guidance. It's a vital first step for early detection and promotes awareness regarding drug use patterns.
Formula:
The DAST-10 score is determined by assigning 1 point for each 'Yes' answer to questions 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, and 1 point for a 'No' answer to question 4.
DAST-10 Total Score = Sum of points from all 10 questions
