Adult and sensitive content
The full checklist is intended for adults aged 18 and over and includes explicit topics. You may leave any item unchecked, exit the test, or delete saved checks. An unchecked item is scored the same whether the experience did not occur or you preferred not to answer.
What the question is asking
Item 84 asks whether you have done something you regretted while drunk. It closes the alcohol block with the only consequence item that is emotional rather than physical, and it is unusually broad because the regretted act could be anything at all.
Where people disagree about what counts
Because it depends entirely on the taker's own judgement, this item has no external test. Some read regret as a serious consequence and check the item rarely; others read it as anything embarrassing and check it readily. Both readings are internally consistent.
The test is self-scored and nobody else ever sees your answer, so the only thing that matters is applying one reading consistently across the whole checklist.
How item 84 fits with the items around it
Item 84 is the last item in the substance category. The checklist then changes category again at item 85 and spends eleven consecutive items on legal experiences, which is the second-longest single-subject run on the list.
How it affects the score
Every question has the same one-point effect. Checking item 84 subtracts one point from the starting score of 100. Leaving it unchecked subtracts nothing, and no item on the checklist is weighted more heavily than any other.
Final score = 100 − total checked boxes
The final number never identifies this answer or any other individual answer — it is a count, so it discards which items were selected the moment it is calculated. Read the full scoring guide or look up an exact result on the 0–100 score chart.
