title: Development of the intoxicated personality scale.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To develop the Intoxicated Personality Scale (IPS).
  
  
  METHODS
  Data were collected from 436 college students via an online survey. Through an iterative measurement development process, the resulting IPS was created.
  
  
  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.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The results suggest that the Intoxicated Personality Scale may be a useful tool for predicting problematic alcohol consumption, alcohol expectancies, and drinking motives.
