Validation and measurement invariance of the Alcohol‐Induced Blackout Measure‐2 among noncollege young adults

Findings support the validity of the ABOM-2 in research contexts when a detailed assessment of blackout experiences is necessary. Our results showing the ABOM-2 is valid among young adult males and females who did not complete 4-year college support use of this measure outside of research conducted only among those in college. Future work should evaluate measurement invariance longitudinally and across additional identities (e.g., racial and ethnic identities).
