Arrestee Drug Abuse Monitoring (ADAM) Program/Drug Use Forecasting (DUF) Series
The Arrestee
Drug Abuse Monitoring (ADAM) Program/Drug Use Forecasting (DUF) Series
is an expanded and redesigned version of the Drug Use Forecasting
(DUF) program, which was upgraded methodologically and expanded to 35
cities in 1998. The redesign was fully implemented beginning in the
first quarter of 2000 using new sampling procedures that improved the
quality and generalizability of the data. The DUF program began in
1987 and was designed to estimate the prevalence of drug use among
persons in the United States who are arrested and booked, and to
detect changes in trends in drug use among this population. The DUF
program was a nonexperimental survey of drug use among adult male and
female arrestees. In addition to supplying information on
self-reported drug use, arrestees also provide a urine specimen, which
is screened for the presence of ten illicit drugs. Between 1987 and
1997 the DUF program collected information in 24 sites across the
United States, although the number of data collection sites varied
slightly from year to year. Data collection took place four times a
year (once each calendar quarter) in each site and selection criteria
and catchment areas (central city or county) varied from site to
site. The original DUF interview instrument (used for the 1987-1994
data and part of the 1995 data) elicited information about the use of
22 drugs. A modified DUF interview instrument (used for part of the
1995 data and all of the 1996-1999 data) included detailed questions
about each arrestee's use of 15 drugs. Juvenile data were added in
1991. The ADAM program, redesigned from the DUF program, moved to a
probability-based sampling for the adult male population during
2000. The shift to sampling of the adult male population in 2000
required that all 35 sites move to a common catchment area, the
county. The ADAM program also implemented a new and expanded adult
instrument in the first quarter of 2000, which was used for both the
male and female data. The term "arrestee" is used in the
documentation, but because no identifying data are collected in the
interview setting, the data represent numbers of arrests rather than
an unduplicated count of persons arrested.

The
National Institute of Justice (NIJ) initiated ADAM in 1998 to replace
DUF. In 2007, the Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP)
initiated ADAM II.
