Brief Addiction Monitor (BAM)
The Brief Addiction Monitor (BAM) is a 17-item, multidimensional, progress-monitoring instrument for patients in treatment for a substance use disorder (SUD). The BAM includes items that assess risk factors for substance use, protective factors that support sobriety, and drug and alcohol use (items 4-7G). The BAM produces composite scores for the three aforementioned domains.
