Brief description This project will develop, refine and trial a tablet computer tool for assessing drinking among Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians. This tool will ‘speak’ to the person (in local language if needed) and use an engaging touchscreen display; it will add up amount consumed if a person shares alcohol or drinks from non-standard containers. The tool will help provide accurate survey data for service planning and community feedback, and can be adapted for healthcare screening.
