“…However, there is a series of studies, which have examined the performance of the AUDIT, i.e., various translated versions of the tool with undocumented translation procedures, in various patient samples, comparing its performance with the outcomes of drinking diaries and exploring correlations with different instruments, such as the Composite International Diagnostic Interview (CIDI), CAGE or Beck's Depression Inventory (Barinova et al, 2013b;Plavinski et al, 2012bPlavinski et al, , 2013aYanov et al, 2009).
