The Diagnostic Assessment Research Tool (DART) is a novel modularized, non-copywritten, semi-structured interview; however, no studies have examined the psychometric properties of its alcohol use disorder (AUD) module. The primary aims of this study were to: (i) validate the factor structure of the DART AUD module and (ii) examine measurement invariance across several key demographic and subgroup factors.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Participants were community members in Hamilton, Canada and Boston, USA who self-identified as making a significant AUD recovery attempt (N\u2009=\u2009499). Internal reliability was examined via the Kuder\u2013Richardson 20 statistic, and correlations between symptom count and drinking quantity\/frequency were examined. Then, symptom-level data were included in a confirmatory factor analysis to examine model fit of a single hypothesized factor structure. Finally, measurement invariance analyses were conducted for sex, age, ethnicity (White vs. racialized), and study site.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>This study found evidence for adequate internal reliability (rKR20\u2009=\u20090.75), and symptom scores correlated with drinking quantity and frequency (r\u2009=\u20090.16\u20130.43). Confirmatory factor analysis results suggested excellent fit for the unidimensional one-factor AUD model (\u03c72\u2009=\u20090.09, confirmatory factor index\u2009=\u20090.99, Tucker Lewis index\u2009=\u20090.99, standardized root mean square residual\u2009=\u20090.06, root mean square error of approximation\u2009=\u20090.02). Measurement invariance analyses revealed that the factor structure was equivalent between sex, age, ethnicity, and study site.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Findings provide strong evidence for the psychometric validity of the DART AUD module and support its use in research and clinical practice.
