The current study evaluated the utility of the self-harm inventory (SHI) as a proxy for and screening measure of borderline personality disorder (BPD) using several diagnostic and statistical manual of mental disorders (DSM)-based BPD measures as criteria.
We used a sample of 145 psychiatric inpatients, who completed the SHI and a series of well-validated, DSM-based self-report measures of BPD.
Using a series of latent trait and latent class analyses, we found that the SHI was substantially associated with a latent construct representing BPD, as well as differentiated latent classes of 'high' vs. 'low' BPD, with good accuracy.
The SHI can serve as proxy for and a good screening measure for BPD, but future research needs to replicate these findings using structured interview-based measurement of BPD.
本研究使用几种基于《精神疾病诊断与统计手册》(DSM)的 BPD 测量标准作为标准,评估自我伤害清单(SHI)作为 BPD 代理和筛查测量的效用。
我们使用了 145 名住院精神病人的样本,他们完成了 SHI 和一系列经过良好验证的基于 DSM 的 BPD 自我报告测量。
使用一系列潜在特质和潜在类别分析,我们发现 SHI 与代表 BPD 的潜在结构以及具有良好准确性的“高”与“低”BPD 的潜在类别有实质性关联。
SHI 可以作为 BPD 的代理和良好的筛查测量,但未来的研究需要使用基于结构化访谈的 BPD 测量来复制这些发现。
