The purpose of this study was to identify the best fitting hierarchical factor structure of the subscales for personality disorders developed from the Inventory of Interpersonal Problems (IIP). In earlier work, 5 subscales associated with a diagnosis of personality disorder (PD) had been developed. With data collected from 5 additional samples at 4 sites (N = 1004), relations among the IIP-PD subscales were investigated using confirmatory factor analysis. Several competing models were tested, and a second-order model with 1 second-order factor and 5 first-order factors provided the best fit to the data. The results support the hypothesis of a single latent construct reflecting general personality dysfunction. Measures of this construct may be useful for screening patients into yes versus no PD groups.
本研究的目的是确定从人际问题量表（IIP）发展而来的人格障碍分量表的最佳拟合层次因素结构。在早期工作中，已经开发出了5个与人格障碍（PD）诊断相关的分量表。利用从4个地点的另外5个样本中收集的数据（N = 1004），使用验证性因素分析研究了IIP-PD分量表之间的关系。测试了几个相互竞争的模型，一个具有1个二阶因素和5个一阶因素的二阶模型对数据提供了最佳拟合。结果支持了反映一般人格功能障碍的单一潜在结构的假设。该结构的测量方法可能有助于将患者筛查为PD组和非PD组。
