“…However, participants in the current study scored significantly lower on the DERS than those from Wilks et al (2016), t (178.5) = −2.13, p = .03, 95% CI [−13.38, −.52], d = −.32. Participants in the current study were, on average, elevated on the PAI-BOR, M = 43.38, SD = 12.05, with 70.1% scoring above Morey’s (1991) threshold score indicating the likely presence of BPD. Finally, our primary measures of interest were relatively highly correlated at baseline, with r s ranging from |.43| to |.68| (see Table 2).…”

“…The Personality Assessment Inventory-Borderline Features Scale (PAI-BOR; Morey, 1991) is a 24-item self-report questionnaire that assesses specific features of BPD, such as mood instability, anger, impulsivity, and relationship difficulties. The PAI-BOR has been shown to have good internal consistency (baseline α in current sample = .86) and high sensitivity (88.0%) and specificity (88.4%) for individuals meeting criteria for BPD (Southward & Cheavens, 2018).…”

Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) has demonstrated effectiveness for a range of emotional difficulties, and DBT skills training groups may be necessary to produce symptom change. However, it is unclear how skills training groups influence outcomes. Specifically, is participation in DBT skills modules associated with general effects (i.e., changes in multiple domains) or domain-specific effects (i.e., changes in the conceptually relevant domain)? Participants recruited from a university training clinic (n = 87; 75.9% diagnosed with borderline personality disorder) participated in standard DBT for 6 months. We conducted hierarchical linear mixed models to test whether self-reported changes in emotion regulation, interpersonal problems, and distress tolerance were associated with the specific DBT module intended to target that outcome. In 3 models, we regressed end-of-module ratings of each of our measures of interest on (a) premodule ratings of each measure of interest, (b) time, and (c) dummy-coded module completed. Although all modules were associated with similar reductions in emotion dysregulation, the Emotion Regulation module was associated with the greatest improvements in both interpersonal problems and distress tolerance. In contrast, the first skills module completed was unrelated to changes in any of these domains. These results suggest that Emotion Regulation skills are associated with improvements in patient symptoms across relevant domains and offer potential directions for optimizing the delivery of DBT.

“…While up-to-date estimates of prevalence rates are not available for Norway, research in the field places the prevalence as high as 30%, with averages of around 15% (Greve et al, 2009; McDermott et al, 2013; Rumschik & Appel, 2019; Young, 2015). Clinicians will have to resort to the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 (Ben-Porath & Archer, 2011; Hathaway & McKinley, 1983) or the Personality Assessment Inventory (Morey, 1991) with its well-validated indexes of symptom overreporting (Rogers, 2018b; Rogers et al, 2003) for more comprehensive evaluations of feigning. More targeted and briefer instruments than the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 or Personality Assessment Inventory would be preferable in many cases, also to be able to combine instruments to increase validity (Giromini et al, 2022).…”

“…A value >.50 indicates a probability of >50% of overreporting. The original study reported results indicating that the IoP-29 was on par with or better than standard indices in the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2 and the Personality Assessment Inventory (Morey, 1991, 2003).…”

Objective: We report on the validation of the Norwegian version of the Inventory of Problems-29 (IoP-29) using an experimental simulation setup with honest responders and responders feigning depression. Method: The sample consisted of 275 participants recruited by convenience by spreading invitational links to participate in the study on social media. They were randomly assigned to either an experimental simulation or an honest condition with the IoP-29. Participants in both conditions were asked to confirm whether they had followed the instructions or not. The honest respondents (n = 138) were asked to respond to the IoP-29 as honestly as they could, whereas the experimental simulators (n = 137) were told to simulate depression based on a case vignette and descriptions of depressive symptoms. Results: We found that participants in the simulation group scored significantly higher than the control group (d = 2.39, p < .000). We found no significant effects from age, gender, or education on the resulting scores. Area under the curve (AUC) for IoP-29 was .94 (SE = .01), meaning a good ability to separate the two conditions. The cutoff for the IoP-False Disorder Score ≥.50 yielded sensitivity = .77, specificity = .93, positive predictive power = .91, negative predictive power = .81, and an overall correct classification = .85. Conclusions: The Norwegian version of IoP-29 demonstrated good validity in discriminating between experimental simulators of depression and a nonclinical control group. Public Significance StatementOur study shows that the Norwegian translation of Inventory of Problems-29 can effectively discriminate between honest nonclinical responders and feigners of depression. This study marks the first step of the validation of the Norwegian IoP-29 version for clinical use.

“…Undergraduate participants were recruited from a psychology subject pool at a Mid-Southern university. Because the main purpose of the study was to examine variability in emotion beliefs over time based on borderline personality pathology (Veilleux, Warner, et al, 2021), potential participants completed a pre-screening measure which included the Personality Assessment Inventory-Borderline Features Scale (PAI-BOR; Morey, 1991), a 24-item index of borderline personality symptoms. People with either high ( T ≥ 70; Raw score ≥ 38) or low ( T < 60; Raw < 18) scores were invited to sign up for the study, where approximately half of the slots were available for high and half for low BPD-features participants.…”

Prior research has found that people tend to be more creative when experiencing positive affect, especially when experiencing high activation positive affect (e.g., excitement, joy). In addition, creativity may also boost positive affect. We aimed to extend past work by examining the effect of felt creativity on subsequent positive affect in daily life, and by examining whether felt creativity was associated with greater willpower self-efficacy and decreased stress. The current study was an ecological momentary assessment study (n = 104) where creativity, willpower, and affect were assessed seven times per day for 1 week. Participants also completed nightly prompts where they reported on daily stress, creative activities engaged during the day, and overall perceptions of daily creativity. Using lagged analyses, we found that higher momentary felt creativity predicted subsequent high-activation positive affect, but not low-activation positive affect. Higher momentary felt creativity also predicted greater willpower, even when controlling for positive affect. Lastly, we found that experiencing a higher number of daily stressors was associated with greater total engagement in creative activities, suggesting that people may use creative activities to manage or distract from stress. Results suggest that creativity may be useful as a behavioral activation activity to increase both positive affect and perceived self-control (i.e., willpower self-efficacy). Perhaps feeling more creative can help people feel more confident in exerting self-control and thus approaching challenging activities with a greater chance of success.
