What Does the PCL-5 Measure? A Conjoint Hierarchical Analysis Using the MMPI-3
The PTSD Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5) is a widely used screening instrument for posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. There is active debate about what the PCL-5 actually measures (i.e., PTSD specific symptoms vs general distress or other transdiagnostic factors), especially when positive screenings are observed using total sum scores. The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-3 (MMPI-3) is a broadband clinical instrument used to as…
Examining the Performance of the MMPI-2-RF in a Sample of Pretransplant Military Veterans
The present study aimed to describe the personality and psychopathology dimensions reported by veterans seeking organ transplantation, as well as to identify those dimensions associated with subsequent presurgical recommendations and transplant outcomes. Data were collected from 245 veterans undergoing a pretransplant psychological evaluation that included the MMPI-2-RF. Three treatment recommendations resulting from these evaluations, three reco…
Professional Practice Guidelines for Personality Assessment
The Utility of the Trauma Symptom Inventory as a Primary and Secondary Assessment Instrument for Forensic Practice in Legal Settings
Standard, especially as related to civil court disability claims. Still, lingering issues with the ATR validity scale remain and there is limited independent research establishing the predictive and discriminant validity of the TSI-2 across diverse forensic samples. In summary, this suggests the instrument is most effective as part of a comprehensive assessment battery for identifying PTSD symptomology within legal proceedings where a trauma diag…
Professional Practice Guidelines for Personality Assessment
The current paper conveys guidelines for personality assessment developed by a work group formed by the Society for Personality Assessment (SPA), which are intended to serve as an aid for best practices specific to personality assessment for professionals, and a source of information for consumers and policy makers. The guidelines were developed after a careful and systematic review of the literature on personality assessment and examination of p…
Assessing the Clinical Utility of the MMPI-2-RF in Detecting Suicidal Ideation in a High Acuity, Partially-Hospitalized Veteran Sample
The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory-2-Restructured Form (MMPI-2-RF; Ben-Porath & Tellegen, 2008/2011) has demonstrated utility in suicide risk assessment. Limited research with the MMPI-2-RF in higher acuity populations exists, particularly regarding the impact of possible underreporting on prediction of suicide risk. The current study serves to extend previous findings of the utility of clinically indicated MMPI-2-RF scales and proxy…
The distinctiveness of hardiness, positive emotionality, and negative emotionality in National Guard soldiers
The Effect of Naltrexone on Taste Detection and Recognition Threshold
Dopamine and the structure of personality
Modern trait theories of personality include a dimension reflecting positive emotionality (PE) based on sensitivity to signals of incentive-reward. In animals, responsivity within an emotional system analog of PE is dependent on brain dopamine (DA) activity. To determine whether human PE trait levels are also associated with central DA, effects of a specific DA D2 receptor agonist were assessed in Ss who were widely distributed along the trait di…
