Introduction: The purpose of this study was to investigate the psychometric properties of the histrionic personality scale including internal consistency, Test- retest reliability, divergent validity and convergent validity in in Iranian culture and society. Method: For this purpose, the questions of this scale were first translated into Farsi, and then by re-translating the questions from Farsi to English and comparing it with the original text, the accuracy of the translation was ensured. This study is descriptive research, and the studied population included 350 adults (231 women - 119 men) of Yazd province with at least a diploma education in the age range of 17 to 58, who were selected by available sampling method. Participants were asked to complete the Cosmetic Surgery Acceptance Scale (ACSS-15) and the Short Form Demonstration Scale (MMPI2). Results: The test-retest reliability (R=0.63) and internal consistency (P=0.83) of the personality scale were satisfactory. Convergent and divergent validity were assessed by calculating the correlation coefficients. Pearson correlation coefficient showed that there was a significant positive correlation between presentation scale and cosmetic surgery acceptance (R=0.27) and also there was a significant positive relationship between presentation scale and MMPI2 subscale (R=0.53). These results confirm the convergent and divergent validity of the histrionic personality scale. Conclusion: Based on the results of this research, the histrionic personality scale to measure this construct has sufficient reliability and validity in Iranian samples considering the different culture of Iran, and can be used in related research.
