Addiction severity index
DEFINITION:
A measure which gathers a broad range of assessment data relevant to an offender's substance abuse, his/her treatment planning needs, and diagnoses.
ARTICLE:
This is not a risk assessment measure per se: however, since substance abuse is a prevalent problem in corrections populations the ASI is likely to be administered and reported in the context of other risk assessment procedures. The ASI-R may be used by criterion-trained casework staff at correction facilities and field sites.
