The Illinois DRI-2 contains seven scales (domains): 1. Truthfulness Scale, 2. Illinois Mandatory Minimum DUI Risk Classification, 3. Driver Risk Scale, 4. Alcohol Scale, 5. Drug Scale, 6. Substance Use Disorder, and 7. the Stress Management Scale.
The Illinois DRI-2 incorporates Illinois Mandatory Minimum DUI Risk Classification which classifies Illinois DUI offender risk according to Illinois DUI state statues (laws).
The Illinois DRI-2 may be given on the computer screen or in paper-pencil test booklet format. Regardless of how the Illinois DRI-2 is administered, all Illinois DRI-2's are computer scored with three page printed reports available on-site within 2 1/2 minutes of data (answer) entry. The Illinois DRI-2 consists of 113 questions and takes 15 to 20 minutes to complete.
Demonstrated reliability, validity and accuracy provide a sound basis for decision making. Peer reviewed research is set forth on www.bds-research.com
Several states have mandated by state law that the Driver Risk Inventory-2 is their sole DUI/DWI offender test (e.g. Florida, Missouri, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Illinois (1 of 3 approved tests), Nebraska, and New Hampshire). And when a short list of tests is approved, the DRI-2 is usually among the select few.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) is the highest federal authority in the DUI field and they rated the Driver Risk Inventory the best DUI offender test available (DOT HS 807 475). And now, after years of additional research, the Driver Risk Inventory has been improved. The DSM-5 Substance Use Disorder has been added along with the Illinois Mandatory Minimum DUI Risk Classification.
The Illinois DRI-2 now incorporates the Illinois Mandatory Minimum DUI Risk Classification methodology, which classifies Illinois DUI offenders' risk according to Illinois DUI state statutes (laws).
The Illinois DRI-2 is the only proprietary DUI offender screening test that incorporates the Illinois DUI state statutes (laws) - a very desirable innovation.
Another unique Illinois DRI-2 feature is its inclusion of a Truthfulness Scale to determine the Truthfulness of the DUI offender while completing the DRI-2. Many, if not most DUI offenders attempt to minimize or deny their substance (alcohol/drug) related use or abuse. No other proprietary DUI offender test has a built-in Truthfulness Scale. And this helps account for the DRI-2's popularity.
In summary, the Illinois DRI-2 is totally evidence based. Demonstrated reliability, validity and accuracy provide a sound basis for decision making. The Illinois DRI-2's cumulative database enables ongoing research on a regular basis.
1. Illinois Mandatory Minimum DUI Risk Classification - Classifies Illinois DUI offender risk according to Illinois State Statutes (laws).
2. Truthfulness Scale - Detects DUI offender denial and problem minimization. Truthfulness Scales are a must for any self-report test.
3. Alcohol Scale - Measures alcohol use and the severity of abuse. Alcohol refers to beer, wine and liquor. Drinking is legal for 18 year olds (and older).
4. Drug Scale - Measures prescription and non-prescription drug use and abuse. Many states are decriminalizing marijuana use.
5. Substance Use Disorder - Utilizes DSM-5 criteria to classify substance use and abuse. The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorder, Fifth Edition (DSM-5) uses eleven symptoms to identify substance use disorders.
6. Driver Risk Scale - Measures driver risk independently from substance (alcohol/drug) use or abuse.
7. Stress Management Scale -Measures an individual's ability to manage or cope with their experienced stress.
