TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, in the general population, the personality trait neuroticism is significantly correlated with almost every psychiatric disorder and migraine, and it is shown that both psychiatric and neurological disorders have robust correlations with cognitive and personality measures.

TL;DR: The authors compared parents' ratings of behavioral and emotional problems on the Child Behavior Checklist (Achenbach, 1991; Achenbach & Rescorla, 2001) for general population samples of children age 5.

TL;DR: Fit indices strongly supported the correlated 8-syndrome structure of the Child Behavior Checklist in each of 30 societies, which support use of the syndromes in diverse societies.

TL;DR: Initial support for the taxonomic generalizability of the 8-syndrome model across very diverse societies, both genders, and 2 age groups is provided.

TL;DR: Results indicate considerable consistency across 24 countries in adolescents' self-reported problems but less consistency for positive qualities.
