Three related studies are presented focusing on the development of a short 32‐item version of the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems (IIP). Study 1 presents the procedures for item selection on the IIP short version; Study 2 presents a confirmatory analysis of the IIP short version on an independent sample; and Study 3 provides preliminary normative (general population and out‐patient) data and additional evidence of the psychometric properties of the IIP short form. The results suggest that the short version sacrifices little compared to the original 127‐item version in terms of its psychometric properties while being considerably more convenient for routine clinical practice.
