The present study examined measurement invariance of the 48-item, 8-factor, Young Adult
Alcohol Consequences Questionnaire (YAACQ) across nationality in college students from
U.S., Spain, and Argentina. We also compared latent mean differences and criterion-related
validity (i.e., correlation with other alcohol-related outcomes) across countries. Last-month
drinkers (1511) from the U.S. (n = 774 [70.5% female]), Argentina (n = 439 [50.6%
female]) and Spain (n = 298 [72.1% female]) completed an online survey measuring
alcohol use, drinking motives, college alcohol beliefs and negative alcohol-related
consequences. Multi-group confirmatory factor analyses supported configural and scalar
invariance of a 47-item 8-factor YAACQ across countries. Overall, the correlation analysis
supported criterion-related validity (i.e., strong bivariate correlations between the eight
subscales and alcohol consumption, drinking motives and college alcohol beliefs) across
countries. Some non-significant bivariate correlations and differences in the magnitude of
the correlations across countries are discussed. Our findings expand previous work, mostly
focused on U.S. samples, by supporting the YAACQ as an adequate measure to assess
alcohol-related consequences in youths across countries marked by unique cultural
traditions, attitudes, and policies pertaining to alcohol. [-]
