TI  - Overview and initial validation of two detailed, multidimensional, retrospective 
      measures of substance use: the Lifetime Substance Use Recall (LSUR) and 
      Longitudinal Substance Use Recall for 12 Weeks (LSUR-12) Instruments.

AB  - Research on comorbidities between substance use disorders and serious mental 
      illnesses would be facilitated by new methods for collecting comprehensive data 
      on substance use, including data on onset, progression, frequency, amounts, and 
      consequential behaviors. Given substantial limitations of available instruments, 
      and a nearly complete absence of methodologies that allow derivation of 
      continuous measures that estimate dose or cumulative exposure, this report 
      describes the development and initial validation of two interviewer-administered, 
      multidimensional measures of substance use, the Lifetime Substance Use Recall 
      (LSUR) and Longitudinal Substance Use Recall for 12 Weeks (LSUR-12) Instruments. 
      Participants (n=60) in an ongoing study of first-episode psychosis were evaluated 
      with the LSUR, LSUR-12, and a number of other concurrent measures pertaining to 
      substance use, substance use disorder diagnoses, select demographic features, and 
      two personality traits. Specific a priori hypothesis tests were selected to 
      demonstrate validity, relying on effect sizes to estimate strengths of 
      association, considering small-to-medium correlations (e.g., rho) as |.20-.50| and 
      medium-to-large effect sizes as >|.50|. Numerous associations were observed 
      between key nicotine-, alcohol-, and cannabis-related variables from the LSUR and 
      LSUR-12 and scores from other concurrently administered measures. These findings 
      provide a thorough initial validation of scores obtained with the new 
      multidimensional instruments. Although validity of the two new measures of 
      lifetime and past 12-week substance use was demonstrated, empirical data on 
      inter-rater and test-retest reliability are needed. Careful development, and 
      demonstration of psychometric properties, of these and related instruments may 
      advance the fields of addiction and comorbidity research.
