To examine the joint hierarchical structure of two measures of adolescent personality pathology within a community sample of Canadian adolescents.
Self-reported data on demographic information and pathological personality traits were obtained from 144 youth (M age = 16.08 years, SD = 1.30). Personality pathology was measured using the youth-version of the Schedule for Nonadaptive and Adaptive Personality (SNAP-Y; Linde, Stringer, Simms, & Clark, in press) and the Dimensional Personality Symptom Item Pool (DIPSI; De Clercq, De Fruyt, Van Leeuwen, & Mervielde, 2006). Lower-order scales were subjected to structural hierarchical analyses.
Scales from the two measures were complementary in defining higher-order traits. Traits at the 4-factor level of the hierarchy (Need for Approval, Disagreeableness, Detachment, and Compulsivity) showed similarities and differences with previous results in adults.
The current investigation integrated top-down and bottom-up measures for a comprehensive account of the higher-order hierarchy of adolescent personality pathology. Results are discussed in the context of convergence across approaches and in comparison with previous findings in adult samples.
在加拿大青少年社区样本中检验两种青少年人格病理学测量方法的联合层次结构。
从144名青少年(年龄中位数 = 16.08岁,标准差 = 1.30)获取关于人口统计学信息和病理性人格特质的自我报告数据。使用非适应性和适应性人格量表青少年版(SNAP-Y;林德、斯特林格、西姆斯和克拉克,即将发表)和维度人格症状项目库(DIPSI;德克勒克、德弗鲁伊特、范利文和梅尔维尔德,2006年)测量人格病理学。对低阶量表进行结构层次分析。
两种测量方法的量表在定义高阶特质方面具有互补性。层次结构中四因素水平的特质(寻求认可、不随和、疏离和强迫性)与之前成年人的研究结果既有相似之处,也有不同之处。
当前研究整合了自上而下和自下而上的测量方法,以全面描述青少年人格病理学的高阶层次结构。研究结果在不同方法趋同的背景下进行了讨论,并与之前成人样本的研究结果进行了比较。
