The publisher apologises that upon publication table 1 of Stockton MA, et al. 2024 was misnumbered, repeating 5 and 6 twice in Step Two Questions.

The correct table should have been as below:

Table 1. MwTool-13 Questions Definitions of a Positive Screen for Each Disorder Category

Abbreviations: AUD, alcohol-use disorder; CMD, common mental disorder; SMD, severe mental disorder; SR, suicide risk; SUD, substance use disorder.

a While Q1-3 direct continuation to the step two questions for identifying AUD, SUD, and SMD, positive responses to Q1 and/or Q3 are considered indicative of CMD. Of note, endorsing only Q2 and none of the other questions is not indicative of a specific disorder.
