Screening is important to help link people to support. However, individuals may not freely report consumption, especially if they perceive discrimination or drink less than others. Here we report on the use of a \u2018check question\u2019 asking about alcohol consumption on special occasions.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      We analysed data from an urban and remote community in South Australia, collected between July and October 2019. Participants who self\u2010reported not drinking alcohol were then asked, using a check question, if they had consumed\n                      <jats:italic>any<\/jats:italic>\n                      alcohol, including on special occasions. We explored the link between alcohol consumption and demographics using linear regression models. We used logistic regression to identify differences between individuals who did and did not initially self\u2010report alcohol consumption.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A total of 775 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples participated. By using a check question, we identified 20 individuals who then self\u2010reported alcohol consumption in the previous 12\u2010months. They reported a median consumption of 5.4 standard drinks per occasion, had a lower AUDIT\u20101 score and reported more consecutive days not drinking alcohol.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Discussion and Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A check question in an alcohol survey tool was useful to identify individuals who do occasionally drink alcohol. Improving how screening tools ask about alcohol consumption is important to help people feel more comfortable and understand that the questions also apply to occasional drinking. This could help with collecting accurate data to inform prevention, treatment and policy efforts.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/dar.70201","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,17]],"date-time":"2026-07-17T00:20:56Z","timestamp":1784247656000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["It Pays to Ask Twice: Alcohol Consumption Amongst Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples Who Self\u2010Reported Not Drinking Alcohol"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"45","author":[{"given":"Teagan","family":"Weatherall","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Alcohol Policy Research La Trobe University  Melbourne Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8816-6229","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"James","family":"Conigrave","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Alcohol Policy Research La Trobe University  Melbourne Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Scott","family":"Wilson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Alcohol Policy Research La Trobe University  Melbourne Australia"},{"name":"Aboriginal Drug and Alcohol Council (SA)  Adelaide Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jimmy","family":"Perry","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Alcohol Policy Research La Trobe University  Melbourne Australia"},{"name":"Aboriginal Drug and Alcohol Council (SA)  Adelaide Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Katherine M.","family":"Conigrave","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine and Health, Central Clinical School The University of Sydney  Sydney Australia"},{"name":"The Edith Collins Centre (Translational Research in Alcohol, Drugs and Toxicology), Sydney Local Health District  Sydney Australia"},{"name":"Drug Health Services, Royal Prince Alfred Hospital  Sydney Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lynette","family":"Bullen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Alcohol Policy Research La Trobe University  Melbourne Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Taleah","family":"Reynolds","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Alcohol Policy Research La Trobe University  Melbourne Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dan","family":"Wilson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Alice Springs Hospital, Northern Territory Health  Alice Springs Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Monika","family":"Dzidowska","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Centre for Alcohol Policy Research La Trobe University  Melbourne Australia"},{"name":"Sydney Pharmacy School, Faculty of Medicine and Health The University of Sydney  Sydney Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1875-0427","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Martyn","family":"Symons","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"National Drug Research Institute Curtin University  Perth Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"K.
