AIM: to perform a systematic literature review of psychometric properties of the ASI. METHOD: were included studies indexed in the databases Pubmed, PsycInfo, Scielo and Lilacs, that approached studies of psychometric evaluation of quinine and sixth version of ASI. RESULTS: described in categories classified according to the number of methods of analysis, show manuscripts from different countries and in different contexts that used classic methods for the validation and reliability analyzes of the fifth and sixth version of ASI. Overall, both versions had good psychometric properties, although some areas, such as the “family” area, presented some limitations on reliability and internal consistency. Most studies show a moderate correlation between ASI summary scores and other instruments, not being uniformly high. However, the areas “alcohol” and “drugs” were the ones that presented the highest correlations with other instruments considered external measures. The analyzes supported the multidimensionality of ASI, however, with some exceptions. CONCLUSION: despite the limitations, ASI is used widely throughout the world by professionals from different fields, psychologists, nurses, social workers and psychiatrists. It has helped clinicians and researchers, contributing to the elaboration of a therapeutic plan, determining the clinical priorities, as well as the management of these.
