“…The MMPI‐2‐RF is a widely used broadband measure of personality and psychopathology with a growing amount of empirical support in its assessment of personality psychopathology (Sellbom, 2019). Indeed, previous work has demonstrated the utility of the MMPI‐2‐RF in evaluating PDs from a categorical perspective (e.g., Anderson et al, 2015; Anderson et al, 2018; De Saeger et al, 2019; Kamphuis et al, 2008; Sellbom & Smith, 2017; Sellbom et al, 2014; Van der Heijden et al, 2013; Zahn et al, 2017) as well as from the perspective of the DSM‐5 AMPD (e.g., Anderson et al, 2013; Anderson et al, 2015; Finn et al, 2014; Sellbom et al, 2013). Perhaps most notably, the MMPI‐2‐RF includes scales to represent Harkness and McNulty's (1994) PSY‐5 model, which represent five domains of pathological personality (aggressiveness, disconstraint, negative emotionality/neuroticism, introversion/low positive emotionality, and psychoticism).…”

Objective The current study examined the utility of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory‐2‐Restructured Form (MMPI‐2‐RF) in assessing ICD‐11 personality psychopathology trait domain qualifiers. Method Using a community sample (N = 217) weighted for externalizing dysfunction, this study evaluated the convergence between ICD‐11 trait domains as measured by the personality inventory for DSM‐5 (PID‐5) with hypothesized MMPI‐2‐RF scales. Particular emphasis was placed on evaluating the convergence between the ICD‐11 trait domain qualifiers and the MMPI‐2‐RF personality psychopathology‐5 (PSY‐5) scales, as the latter are meant to represent broadband domains of personality pathology. Results Correlation and regression analyses demonstrated expected associations between ICD‐11 domains and conceptually expected MMPI‐2‐RF scales, with some minor exceptions. Notably, the Anankastia domain showed associations with scales assessing negative affect, but did not show expected negative associations with scales related to disinhibition. Conclusions The findings generally supported the use of the MMPI‐2‐RF in assessing individual expressions of personality dysfunction from the ICD‐11 trait domain qualifier perspective.

“…Previous literature has examined the associations between the Section II PD diagnostic criteria and the MMPI‐2 (Bell‐Pringle et al, 1997; Castlebury et al, 1997; Wygant et al, 2006) and MMPI‐2‐RF (Anderson, Sellbom, Pymont, et al, 2015; Finn et al, 2014; Sellbom & Smith, 2017; Sellbom et al, 2014; Zahn et al, 2017). Research with the MMPI‐2‐RF, which is most relevant to the MMPI‐3, has evaluated numerous MMPI‐2‐RF scales against PD criteria in a number of different settings, including clinical (Anderson, Sellbom, Pymont et al, 2015; Sellbom et al, 2014; Zahn et al, 2017), military (Finn et al, 2014), forensic (Anderson, Sellbom, Pymont, et al, 2015; Sellbom et al, 2014) and university samples (Finn et al, 2014; Sellbom & Smith, 2017). This body of work has supported most hypothesized correlations, for instance; Paranoid PD with Ideas of Persecution (RC6), Anger Proneness (ANP) and Aggression (AGG); Antisocial PD with Antisocial behavior (RC4), Juvenile Conduct Problems (JCP), Substance Abuse (SUB) and Aggression (AGG); Borderline PD with Dysfunctional Negative Emotions (RC7), Suicidal/Death Ideation (SUI), Stress/Worry (STW), Anger Proneness (ANP) and Aggression (AGG), and Avoidant PD with Self Doubt (SFD), Inefficacy (NFC), Social Avoidance (SAV) and Shyness (SHY).…”

“…A priori hypotheses were generated for which MMPI‐3 scales would be most highly associated with each PD (see Table 1). The hypotheses were primarily generated through a conceptual mapping of the MMPI‐3 scales to the diagnostic criteria for the individual PDs, and subsequently, hypotheses were adapted based on previous research (e.g., Anderson, Sellbom, Pymont, et al, 2015; Finn et al, 2014, Sellbom & Smith, 2017; Zahn et al, 2017) on their MMPI‐2‐RF counterparts, by including scales that were shown to be consistently converging certain PDs (and could be included on conceptual grounds) or removing scales that were divergent from (despite their conceptual relevance) each PD. Recent research on the SFI scale (Sellbom, 2020; Whitman & Ben‐Porath, 2021) also informed hypotheses on this scale.…”

Objective The current study examined associations between Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory‐3 (MMPI‐3) scales and self‐reported DSM‐5 Section II personality disorder (PD) symptoms. A priori hypotheses were generated for which MMPI‐3 scales would be most highly associated with each PD. Methods We used a large sample (n = 489) of university students, who completed the MMPI‐3 and two established self‐report measures of personality disorders. Results The results were generally consistent with theoretical expectations and previous research utilizing the MMPI‐2‐RF. Specifically, most hypothesized MMPI‐3 scales exhibited meaningful associations with relevant PD variables, although there were some notable exceptions. The regression models revealed significant predictors for each PD which were generally consistent with expectations and previous research. Conclusions Overall, the MMPI‐3 appears well situated to cover a range of DSM‐5 Section II PD‐related psychopathology, and three of the new MMPI‐3 scales appear to have added utility for assessing personality pathology.

“…These results are in line with previous findings. 6,7,11 For each PSY-5 scale, the findings from path analyses suggest that AGGR, DISC, NEGE, and INTR predicted BOR-A, NEGE and age predicted BOR-I, DISC and NEGE predicted BOR-N, and NEGE, DISC, and age predicted BOR-S. In other words, NEGE significantly predicted all the PAI-BOR subscales, while PSYC did not significantly predict any subscale.…”

ders, fifth edition (DSM-5). 1 However, the traditional BPD diagnosis showed many limitations including inadequate coverage of personality psychopathology variance, excessive comorbidity, within-disorder heterogeneity, loss of sub-threshold information, and diagnostic instability. 2,3 To solve these issues, DSM-5 proposed an alternative model of personality disorder (AMPD) with dimensional domains. 1 This domain-level trait model is based on dimensional models of personality such as the Personality Psychopathology Five (PSY-5), which includes antagonism, disinhibition, negative affectivity, detachment, and psychoticism as five domains. 4 At the measurement level, PSY-5 scales were developed onto the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (MMPI-2) item pool to evaluate the PSY-5 domains. 4 The MMPI-2 PSY-5 scales are aggressiveness (AGGR), disconstraint (DISC), negative emotionality/neuroticism (NEGE), introversion/low posi-
