paragraph_text: Tobacco, Alcohol, Prescription Medication, and Other Substance Use (TAPS)
  
  This is a screening and assessment tool in one, assessing commonly used substances. This tool allows for a simple diagnosis, eliminating the need for several screening and assessment tools, as it includes both TAPS-1 and TAPS-2, screening and assessment tools respectively. The screening component asks about the frequency of use of the specific substance (tobacco, alcohol, prescription medication, and other). If an individual screens positive, the second component will begin. This dictates the risk level of the substance.
