This study tested differences in personality traits measured by the Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire (MPQ) in a community sample of adolescents with definite or probable conduct disorder (CD) diagnoses that did not progress to a diagnosis of antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) by early adulthood (n=43), those with definite or probable ASPD that persisted into early adulthood (n=68), or controls with neither a CD nor an ASPD diagnosis (n=716) to examine whether antisocial behaviour disorders that differed in course were associated with differences in personality traits. As expected, boys and girls with ASPD were significantly different from controls on constraint, and those with ASPD were significantly lower on constraint than those with only CD. The results suggest that individual differences in certain personality traits may contribute to differences in the type of antisocial behaviour disorder that emerges and thereby to the course of antisocial behaviour.
本研究在一个社区青少年样本中,测试了通过多维人格问卷(MPQ)测量的人格特质差异。该样本包括确诊或可能患有品行障碍(CD)且在成年早期未发展为反社会人格障碍(ASPD)诊断的青少年(n = 43)、确诊或可能患有持续到成年早期的ASPD的青少年(n = 68),或既无CD诊断也无ASPD诊断的对照组(n = 716),以检验病程不同的反社会行为障碍是否与人格特质差异相关。正如预期的那样,患有ASPD的男孩和女孩在自我约束方面与对照组有显著差异,且患有ASPD的青少年在自我约束方面显著低于仅患有CD的青少年。结果表明,某些人格特质的个体差异可能导致出现的反社会行为障碍类型不同,从而导致反社会行为的病程不同。
