Argentine Adaptation of the Personality Inventory for DSM - Brief Form (PID-5- BF): An ESEM Approach

The dimensional model for personality disorders included in the DSM-5 represents a significant conceptual advancement in the diagnosis of personality disorders. The model comprises pathological personality traits organized in five broad domains: detachment, negative affectivity, psychoticism, antagonism and disinhibition. The Personality Inventory for DSM-5 (PID-5) was developed to assess these broad personality domains. This study examines the factor structure of the Personality Inventory Disorder- Brief Form (PID-5-BF) and its measurement invariance across sex and age. A sample of 908 individuals from the general population of Argentina completed the PID-5-BF. The results from the exploratory structural equation modeling (ESEM) indicated that a five-factor model consistent with the five broad traits fitted excellent to the data and was invariant (configural, metric and strong invariance) across the group examined. Practical implications of the study are discussed and recommendations for improving scale reliability are proposed.
