Below are 2 (two) scenarios that describe alcohol­related behaviors in women. Please read each scenario carefully and 
respond to the questions that follow regarding the described individual and behavior. 

Scenario 1
Over the past few months, Sally has started to drink more than her usual amount of
alcohol. In fact, she has noticed that she now needs to drink twice as much in order to get
the same effect. Several times she has tried to cut down or stop drinking. However, each
time she tried she became very agitated and couldn’t sleep, so would start drinking and
the symptoms would go away. Her family has complained that she is often hung over,
moody, and has become unreliable – making plans one day and cancelling them the next.
In fact, they report that she frequently calls them while intoxicated and has no memory of
the calls or what she promised the next day.
In your opinion, how likely is it that Sally’s situation might be caused by…

Scenario 2
During the past year, Jessica has started to drink more than her usual amount of alcohol.
In fact, she has noticed that she now needs to drink twice as much in order to get the
same effect. Three months ago, Jessica found out that she is pregnant and her doctor told
her she should not drink alcohol during her pregnancy. Jessica has tried but so far has
not been able to stop drinking. Some of Jessica’s friends told her that when they were
pregnant the taste and/or smell of alcohol made them sick. Jessica was hoping that she
would have the same reaction, but that has not been the case. Out of concern for Jessica’s
health and the health of her baby, her family has tried several times to talk with her about it.
However, they are telling her that she is being selfish and not behaving in the best interest
of her child. This approach is only increasing how guilty and ashamed Jessica is feeling
about not being able to stop. As a result, Jessica has become very secretive about her
drinking, sneaking a drink whenever she has a chance.
In your opinion, how likely is it that Jessica ’s situation might be caused by…
Not at all likely

her own bad character.

FASD is an umbrella term 
that covers multiple 
problems related to 
prenatal exposure to 
alcohol
There are no societal costs 
related to FASDs
Alcohol affects multiple 
organ systems throughout 
pregnancy… particularly 
the central nervous system
Only pregnant women need 
to be screened for alcohol 
use
There is no safe time, no 
safe type, and no known 
safe amount of alcohol that 
can be consumed during 
pregnancy
Brief interventions promote 
reductions in alcohol use 
among non­dependent 
individuals
Supportive, non­
judgmental counseling can 
lead to decreased alcohol 
use during pregnancy
