“…In addition, longitudinal invariance tests revealed that the RPBS measurement properties did not significantly alter over time. This has not previously been established for the RPBS, and it indicated that any changes at the construct level were not contaminated by measurement bias (Lodder et al, 2022). Furthermore, a more accurate estimate of temporal stability existed in comparison with preceding research (e.g.…”

“…The test-retest reliability coefficients (Pearson and Spearman's Rho) were computed in relation to the latent construct scores derived from analysis of the statistical models. In contrast to total questionnaire scores, these are uncontaminated by measurement error (Lodder et al, 2022). Across the three time points for the RPBS (assessing paranormal belief, PB), test-retest was in the moderate to high range (> 0.70).…”

Longitudinal assessment of the temporal stability and predictive validity of the Revised Paranormal Belief Scale

The Revised Paranormal Belief Scale (RPBS) is the prevailing measure of supernatural credence. However, there exists only limited evidence to support the temporal stability and predictive validity of the instrument over time. Acknowledging this, the present study assessed the test–retest reliability of the RPBS using a large, heterogeneous sample across multiple trials. In addition, predictive validity was tested using a longitudinal statistical model, which focused on allied health outcomes (Perceived Stress and Somatic Complaints). A sample of 1,665 (Mage = 54.40, 853 females, 804 males, five non-binary and three not disclosing of gender) completed study measures at three time points separated by 2 month intervals. Prior to assessing temporal stability, assessment of structural validity and longitudinal invariance occurred. Test–retest reliability of the RPBS was in the moderate to high range across time intervals, and good internal consistency was observed. Furthermore, satisfactory stability coefficients existed for RPBS subfactors. Data-model fit for the predictive model was acceptable. Belief in the paranormal explained low variance over time in Perceived Stress and Somatic Complaints (between 2.4 and 4.2%). Findings supported the stability and reliability of the RPBS. In addition, they aligned with the notion that paranormal belief in the absence of high scores on cognitive-perceptual factors (e.g. transliminality and schizotypy), has a benign influence on perceived health.

“…The present study finds support for both of these, as evidenced by high stability estimates, several significant longitudinal relationships with life criteria measures across two years, and evidence of incremental validity for PiCD Negative Affectivity and IPiC Detachment in the prediction of depressive symptoms and satisfaction with life across two years, respectively. In the future, further analysis of the longitudinal retest reliability and validity of the measures should be conducted including latent variable modeling (c.f., Lodder et al, 2022). However, together this initial evidence provides longitudinal psychometric support for the validity and reliability of the PiCD and IPiC scales.…”

The International Classification of Diseases – 11th edition (ICD-11) adopted a fully dimensional model of personality disorder. The Personality Inventory for ICD-11 (PiCD) and Informant?Personality Inventory for ICD-11 (IPiC) were developed to assess the ICD-11 trait model and the PiCD has since received significant validation support. However, there has only been one prior study of longitudinal predictive validity, two relatively short test-retest reliability studies of the PiCD, and no prior longitudinal tests of the IPiC. Longitudinal psychometric support for psychological assessment measures is essential. The present study provides a longer, larger, two-year psychometric validation test of the PiCD and IPiC. Participants (N = 711) and their informants (N = 569) were recruited in the St. Louis Personality and Aging Network (SPAN). The results demonstrated strong two-year test-retest reliability and predictive validity for the PiCD and IPiC. We explored the relationships between the PiCD and IPiC and important life outcome measures (depressive symptoms, satisfaction with life, and health status). The analysis revealed significant associations between PiCD and IPiC scales and the outcome variables across time. Further, the PiCD Negative Affectivity and IPiC Detachment scales demonstrated incremental validity over each other and the outcome variables at Wave 1 in the prediction of depressive symptoms and satisfaction with life, respectively. Our findings provide essential longitudinal test-retest reliability and predictive validity support for the PiCD and IPiC.

The International Classification of Diseases, 11th edition (ICD-11) adopted a fully dimensional model of personality disorder. The Personality Inventory for ICD-11 (PiCD) and Informant-Personality Inventory for ICD-11 (IPiC) were developed to assess the ICD-11 trait model, and the PiCD has since received significant validation support. However, there has only been one prior study of longitudinal predictive validity of the PiCD, two relatively short test-retest reliability studies of the PiCD, and no prior longitudinal tests of the IPiC. Longitudinal psychometric support for psychological assessment measures is essential. The present study provides a longer, larger, 2-year psychometric validation test of the PiCD and IPiC. Participants (N = 711) and their informants (N = 569) were recruited in the St. Louis Personality and Aging Network. The results demonstrated strong 2-year retest reliability for the PiCD and IPiC, as well as mean-level stability. Additionally, we explored the relationships between the PiCD and IPiC and important life outcome measures (depressive symptoms, satisfaction with life, and health status). The analysis revealed several significant associations between PiCD and IPiC scales and the outcome variables across time. Further, the PiCD Negative Affectivity and IPiC Detachment scales demonstrated incremental validity over each other and the outcome variables at Wave 1 in the prediction of depressive symptoms and satisfaction with life, respectively. The findings provide essential longitudinal test-retest reliability and predictive validity support for the PiCD and IPiC. Public Significance StatementThis 2-year study on the Personality Inventory for ICD-11 (PiCD) and Informant-Personality Inventory for ICD-11 (IPiC) highlights robust retest reliability for both scales in a sample of older community adults. Evidence is also found for mean-level stability and associations between the scales and depressive symptoms, satisfaction with life, and health status. This research provides essential, foundational longitudinal psychometric support for both the PiCD and IPiC scales.
