Depression Anxiety Stress Scale is 21 self report items scored on a 4-point Likert scale that ranges from 0 (not at all) to 3 (applied very much). It has three subscales: depression (7 items with a possible score from 0 to 21), anxiety (7 items with a possible score from 0 to 21), and stress (7 items with a possible score from 0 to 21). Higher scores indicate greater symptomology.

PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 is the most current version of the PTSD Check List (PCL), the gold standard of PTSD symptom assessments. Its 20-items use a 5-point Likert scale (0-not at all to 4-extremely) that maps on to the diagnostic criteria outlined in the DSM-5. The PCL-5 is appropriate for both clinical and research purposes and is recommended for monitoring symptom change. The PCL-5 is summed to create a total score with a possible range of 0 to 80. A score of 31-33 or higher is indicative of a provisional diagnosis of PTSD and preliminary validation has established that a 10 point change is clinically significant.

Drug Abuse Screening Test (DAST) is a 10 item, yes or no response measure of drug use. The possible scores range from 0 to 10. The DAST 10 scores are divided into five levels of symptomology (0 No problems reported; 1-2 Low; 3-5 Moderate; 6-8 Substantial; 9-10 Severe) and level change is considered clinically significant.
