The present study examined the utility of the B-YAACQ to distinguish among students at-
risk for problematic alcohol use as measured by the AUDIT. A sample of 6382 students
(mean age=20.28, SD=3.75, 72.2% females) from seven countries (i.e., U.S., Canada, South-
Africa, Spain, Argentina, Uruguay, England) completed the B-YAACQ, the AUDIT and
different measures of alcohol use. ROC analyses suggested that a cutoff score of 5 maximized
the YAACQ’s discrimination utility to differentiate between students at low versus
moderate/high risk in the total sample and across countries (except in Canada, where the
cutoff was 4). In addition, a cutoff of 7 differentiated between students at low/moderate
versus high risk in the total sample, while cutoffs of 10, 9, 8 and 7 differentiate between
students at low/moderate versus high risk in Uruguay, U.S and Spain (10), Argentina (9),
England (8), and Canada and South-Africa (7), respectively. Students classified at the three
risk levels (i.e., low, moderate and high) differed in age (i.e., a younger age was associated
with higher risk) and drinking patters (i.e., higher drinking frequency, quantity, binge
drinking and AUDIT and B-YAACQ scores in the higher risk groups). This study suggest
that the B-YAACQ is a useful tool to identify college students at-risk for experiencing
problematic patterns of alcohol use. [-]
