A Factor Analytic Study of the Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory (SASSI)

B. Thomas Gray

North Texas State Hospital–Vernon Campus

The Substance Abuse Subtle Screening Inventory (SASSI) is a widely used but little studied screening test for substance misuse. The present study was the first to examine the test’s factor structure and also provided an opportunity to compare direct and indirect assessment approaches. Two large samples (n1 = 888, n2 = 580) of SASSI protocols were obtained. Reliability coefficients were generally good (> .8) for the direct scales and poor for the indirect scales. Confirmatory and exploratory factor analyses showed the data to be a poor fit to a model implicit in the SASSI. A two-factor model closely matching the direct scales was generated, replicated with the second sample, and found to be invariant across gender.
