The Personality Inventory for DSM-5 Short Form (PID-5-SF): psychometric properties and association with big five traits and pathological beliefs in a Norwegian population

Abstract

BackgroundWith the publication of the fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), an alternative model for personality disorders based on personality dysfunction and pathological personality traits was introduced. The Personality Inventory for DSM-5 (PID-5) is a 220-item self-report inventory designed to assess the personality traits of this model. Recently, a short 100-item version of the PID-5 (PID-5-SF) has been developed. The aim of this study was to investigate the score reliability and structure of the Norwegian PID-5-SF. Further, criterion validity with the five factor model of personality (FFM) and pathological personality beliefs was examined.MethodsA derivation sample of university students (N = 503) completed the PID-5, the Big Five Inventory (BFI), and the Personality Beliefs Questionnaire – Short Form (PBQ-SF), whereas a replication sample of 127 students completed the PID-5-SF along with the aforementioned measures.ResultsThe short PID-5 showed overall good score reliability and structural validity. The associations with FFM traits and pathological personality beliefs were conceptually coherent and similar for the two forms of the PID-5.ConclusionsThe results suggest that the Norwegian PID-5 short form is a reliable and efficient measure of the trait criterion of the alternative model for personality disorders in DSM-5.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/s40359-016-0169-5) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.

Structure of DSM‐5 and ICD‐11 personality domains in Iranian community sample

“…In regard to the primary loading of Impulsivity on Negative Affectivity, it is well established that Impulsivity (i.e. impulsiveness) is also a facet of Neuroticism essentially corresponding to Negative Affectivity . Finally, the primary loadings of Callousness and Deceitfulness on Disinhibition (instead of Antagonism) might indicate a culture‐bound overlap within the higher‐order domain of Externalizing.…”

New vision on the mental problems of Vincent van Gogh; results from a bottom-up approach using (semi-)structured diagnostic interviews

“…The same art historians were interviewed by another author (EVM) using four questionnaires on personality disorders [the ‘Self Test Viersprong’ ( https://www.deviersprong.nl/wp-content/uploads/ ); the ‘McLean Screening Instrument for Borderline Personality Disorder’ (MSI-BPD) (Zanarini et al 2003 ); the ‘General Assessment of Personality Disorders’ (GAPD) (Hentschel and Livesley 2013 ); and the ‘Personality Inventory for DSM-5’ (PID 5)] (Thimm et al 2016 ) about the existence of possible personality pathology while focussing on his life before the ear incident. The answers to these questionnaires were then scored by two independent experienced diagnosticians (T. Ingenhoven, psychiatrist and H. Berghuis, clinical psychologist), who were unfamiliar with the origins of the investigation and the identity of the ‘patient’, i.e.…”

Psychometric properties and diagnostic utility of a Brazilian version of the PCL-5 (complete and abbreviated versions)

“…Second, rather than applying different versions of the PCL-5, we only applied the full PCL-5 to the participants and then picked out the items for each abbreviated checklist based on the results from a previous study (Price et al, 2016). Although the application of this methodology is common in the assessment of abbreviated scales (Thimm, Jordan, & Bach, 2016), it is possible that participants' replies to the 4-item and 8-item versions of the PCL-5 have been influenced by the completion of the full checklist. Third, the assessment of a convenience sample from a single medium-sized (682,302 people) inner state city hinders the generalizability of our results.…”
