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

Development and validation of a measure of online deception and intimacy
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors established the personality and psychopathology correlates of misrepresenting oneself or deceiving others online and seeking meaningful companionship through online relationships, and created two scales, one which they labeled Online Deception and the other Online Intimacy (e.g., turning to the internet for meaningful social interaction).

TL;DR: The findings suggest that the most relevant dimensions of personality pathology are associated with very different clinical consequences and levels of harmfulness.

Investigating the Relationship Between DSM-5 Personality Disorder Domains and Facets and Aggression in an Offender Population Using the Personality Inventory for the DSM-5
TL;DR: In this article, the authors explored associations between aggression and the Personality Inventory for the DSM-5 (PID-5) domains and facets in 208 male offenders and highlighted the importance of a facet-level analysis when exploring the PD-aggression relationship.

Mapping the MMPI-2-RF Specific Problems Scales Onto Extant Psychopathology Structures.
TL;DR: Evaluating the internal structure of the Specific Problems and Interest scales revealed consistent evidence for a 4-factor structure representing somatization, negative affect, externalizing, and social detachment, adding support to the notion that somatized and detachment should be considered important higher order domains in the psychopathology literature.

The Darker Aspects of Motivation: Pathological Personality Traits and the Fundamental Social Motives

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.
