Development and evaluation of the revised Alcohol Evaluation Instrument.
This study reports on the development of a revised version of the Alcohol Evaluation Instrument (ALCEVAL-R). Items in the four major areas of the ALCEVAL-R were factor analyzed separately and relationships among factors were examined. Results suggest that the ALCEVAL-R measures clinically meaningful aspects of the alcoholic patient's occupational and social status, and reveals important dimensions of alcohol consumption and of the personal and social consequences of alcohol abuse.
