Scoring and Interpretation

Each Yes response = 1 point

Total Score Range: 0–4

A total score of 2 or more is considered clinically significant and may indicate a potential alcohol- or substance-use disorder. Further assessment is recommended.

Note: The CAGE and CAGE-AID are screening tools, not diagnostic instruments. Clinical judgment and additional evaluation should be used when interpreting results.
