Risk propensity is the probability of individuals engaging in activities in which there is variability in possible outcomes. In a recent effort to measure general risk-taking propensity, Zhang, Highhouse and Nye (2018) developed and evaluated the General Risk Propensity Scale (GRiPS) using a total sample of 1,523 participants across five studies. The authors found construct validity evidence via the internal structure of item responses and convergence with other self-report measures of risk propensity. They also found that the scale predicted work, academic and life-related outcomes over and above other risk propensity instruments and the big five. Thus, our goal in this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the GRiPS in a Brazilian sample (n=404). We use factor analyses, TRI analyses and measurement invariance analyses and found good psychometric indices of this instrument to Brazilian samples.
