%X OBJECTIVE: To develop the Intoxicated Personality Scale (IPS). <br><br>METHODS: Data were collected from 436 college students via an online survey. Through an iterative measurement development process, the resulting IPS was created. <br><br>RESULTS: The 5 subscales (Good Time, Risky Choices, Risky Sex, Emotional, and Introvert) of the IPS positively related to alcohol consumption, alcohol problems, drinking motives, alcohol expectancies, and personality. <br><br>CONCLUSIONS: The results suggest that the Intoxicated Personality Scale may be a useful tool for predicting problematic alcohol consumption, alcohol expectancies, and drinking motives.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>
