It highlights that SASSI-4 has a high overall screening accuracy of 95% in criminal justice settings and 92% for clients with criminal histories. The findings indicate that offenders tend to minimize their substance use, yet SASSI-4 remains effective due to its inclusion of subtle items and defensive responding scales. Additionally, it demonstrates strong sensitivity and specificity in dual diagnosis clients, unaffected by demographic variables.
