The Michigan Alcoholism Screening Test (MAST) and the Drug Abuse Screening Test (DAST) are instruments designed to detect alcohol and drug abuse, respectively. Short versions (20 self-report items) of each instrument were administered to a sample of 615 women who were in jail or on probation. Principal-components analysis (PCA) was applied to the items of each instrument. Four factors similar to those found in previous research were identified, however the instruments were essentially found to be unidimensional. Subjecting pooled MAST and DAST items to PCA did not result in the identification of an underlying factor.
密歇根酒精中毒筛查测试（MAST）和药物滥用筛查测试（DAST）分别是用于检测酒精和药物滥用情况的工具。对615名在押或缓刑的女性样本进行了这两种工具的简短版本（20个自我报告项目）测试。对每种工具的项目进行了主成分分析（PCA）。识别出了四个与先前研究中发现的因素相似的因素，然而，这些工具本质上被发现是单维的。对合并后的MAST和DAST项目进行主成分分析并没有识别出潜在因素。
