TLDR
A maladaptive personality trait model and corresponding instrument are developed as a step on the path toward helping users of DSM-5 assess traits that may or may not constitute a formal personality disorder.Abstract:
Background DSM-IV-TR suggests that clinicians should assess clinically relevant personality traits that do not necessarily constitute a formal personality disorder (PD), and should note these traits on Axis II, but DSM-IV-TR does not provide a trait model to guide the clinician. Our goal was to provide a provisional trait model and a preliminary corresponding assessment instrument, in our roles as members of the DSM-5 Personality and Personality Disorders Workgroup and workgroup advisors. Method An initial list of specific traits and domains (broader groups of traits) was derived from DSM-5 literature reviews and workgroup deliberations, with a focus on capturing maladaptive personality characteristics deemed clinically salient, including those related to the criteria for DSM-IV-TR PDs. The model and instrument were then developed iteratively using data from community samples of treatment-seeking participants. The analytic approach relied on tools of modern psychometrics (e.g. item response theory models). Results A total of 25 reliably measured core elements of personality description emerged that, together, delineate five broad domains of maladaptive personality variation: negative affect, detachment, antagonism, disinhibition, and psychoticism. Conclusions We developed a maladaptive personality trait model and corresponding instrument as a step on the path toward helping users of DSM-5 assess traits that may or may not constitute a formal PD. The inventory we developed is reprinted in its entirety in the Supplementary online material, with the goal of encouraging additional refinement and development by other investigators prior to the finalization of DSM-5. Continuing discussion should focus on various options for integrating personality traits into DSM-5.read more

TL;DR: The construction and validation of the Interpersonal Influence Tactics Circumplex (IIT-C) Scales are detailed, which assesses a theoretically based and empirically derived set of interpersonal influence tactics and provides a common language for integrating distinct streams of influence research by conforming to the IPC.

Anxiousness and Distractibility Strengthen Mediated Associations Between Men's Penis Appearance Concerns, Spectatoring, and Sexual Difficulties: A Preregistered Study.
Robert B. Wyatt,David C. de Jong +1 more
TL;DR: In a sample of 858 sexually active men in predominantly mixed-gender relationships, this study replicated previous findings that penis appearance concerns were associated with greater spectatoring, and in turn greater problems with erection and orgasm, and hypothesized that anxiousness and distractibility would strengthen these associations.

Social Factors in the Personality Disorders : Finding a Niche
TL;DR: This paper explored how certain social forces can amplify heritable traits into disorders and considered these interactions in the framework of a broad biopsychosocial model, including borderline, narcissistic, and antisocial personality.

TL;DR: This paper analyzed the responses of 539 adults who met an evidence-based criterion of probable maladaptive daydreaming and met the description of at least one of the following personality facets: grandiosity, separation insecurity, and anhedonia.

Employee social liability - more than just low social capital within the workplace
Rachel L. Morrison,Keith Macky +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a construct termed Employee Social Liability (ESL) is proposed, which is the antithesis of employee social capital and comprises negative behaviour from others, distrust of others, unwanted social demands on resources, and a lack of reciprocity.

Estimating the Dimension of a Model
TL;DR: In this paper, the problem of selecting one of a number of models of different dimensions is treated by finding its Bayes solution, and evaluating the leading terms of its asymptotic expansion.

TL;DR: The first large-scale testing of PROMIS item banks and their short forms provide evidence that they are reliable and precise measures of generic symptoms and functional reports comparable to legacy instruments.
