Addiction Treatment: The C.A.G.E. Questionnaire

 The C.A.G.E. questionnaire is an alcohol addiction assessment tool for individuals used to discover potential alcohol problems, including dependence. It is useful because it involves four simple questions, of which only two need to be answered positively for the individual to be indicated as a person with a possible case of alcohol addiction.

To take this questionnaire, carefully read each statement and decide whether your answer is yes or no. Please select the best answer that reflects how each statement applies over your whole life.

Please note: This test will only be scored correctly if you answer each one of the questions.
