In a non-clinical sample of N = 506 participants, the factor structures of all three instruments were confirmed, and good convergent, discriminant, and concurrent validity were established.

However, differences in concurrent validity were not substantial. Although the Self and Interpersonal domains were found to be highly correlated, regression analyses confirmed the theoretically expected unique contributions of individual scales within both domains.

It is central to intra- and interpersonal functioning, as impairments in RF are associated with psychopathology, and especially borderline personality disorder (BPD). The Reflective Functioning Scale (RFS), the gold-standard measure of RF, requires the identification of qualitative markers, but their specific contribution to the global score and whether the prevalence of these markers differs among proxies of clinical samples has rarely been examined. Participants who met the criteria for BPD (n = 51), other psychiatric disorders (n = 49), or healthy controls (n = 51) were interviewed for RF using the Brief Reflective Functioning Interview, which was coded with the RFS. Positive markers were stronger predictors of RF scores than negative ones, though both uniquely contributed to the prediction of RF. Qualitative categories did not predict the global RF scores beyond the prediction by marker valence. Groups differed in marker prevalence, with BPD displaying higher rates of distorted, self-serving markers of RF. Findings suggest that qualitative markers of RF add unique insight into mentalizing, informing theoretical and clinical endeavors, but that the current set of markers may be redundant and requires reconsideration.","PeriodicalId":16707,"journal":{"name":"Journal of personality assessment","volume":" ","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":2.6,"publicationDate":"2026-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"149111156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"心理学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Robust empirical support has been reported for the posited high-end manifestations of this trait, as measured across versions of the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) by the Disconstraint (DISC) scale. Empirical findings related to low-end manifestations of DISC scores have been inconsistent across studies that have relied on broadband OCPD-related measures.

Results of zero-order correlation and locally weighted regression smoothing (LWRS) analyses indicated that several OCPD features are associated with low MMPI-3 DISC scores (but not all). Risk aversion, ruminative deliberation, and punctiliousness emerged as the primary relevant (negative) correlates, with perfectionism, workaholism, and doggedness yielding somewhat weaker associations with low DISC scores.

Pursuing three objectives, we (1) generated 41 age-appropriate items by adapting and extending the Infant and Toddler Curiosity Questionnaire (ITCQ; Altmann et al., 2025a), first in English, followed by Dutch and German translations; (2) examined the factor structure in each country independently (sample sizes: UK = 398; NL = 330; DE = 540), discarded poorly fitting items, and integrated the results to produce a single, 25-item questionnaire comprising three subscales (Novelty, Investigative, and Interactive Curiosity); and (3) evaluated the reliability and validity of the final instrument within each national sample to assess its performance across cultural contexts. Psychometric analyses indicated strong internal consistency, coherent relations with other validated measures, and evidence of cross-cultural applicability.

In general, moderate to large mean effect-sizes were observed across the hierarchy of the MMPI-2-RF scales, which were quite consistent in pattern with the recent BOOTS outcome paper, albeit with smaller effect-sizes. In terms of rank order stability and proportion attaining reliable change, generally more patients shifted position on internalizing scales than on externalizing scales, but this may in part be an artifact of more historical items on the latter.

In this study, we describe the construction and validation of the HEXACO-MFC. We analyzed data from four samples (Ns range from 770 to 977), two of which filled out the original HEXACO-60 and two of which filled out the new HEXACO-MFC. For validation purposes, we also administered other personality questionnaires on the Big Five and the Dark Triad traits, as well as questions on criteria. In addition, we investigated the measurement invariance of the HEXACO-MFC across German and English versions. Overall, the convergent and discriminant validity of the HEXACO-MFC traits with other personality traits was satisfactory, and criterion-related validities provided further evidence for the usefulness of the HEXACO-MFC. Measurement invariance across German and English versions existed for most item blocks in the HEXACO-MFC.

Recently, the Infant and Toddler Curiosity Questionnaire (ITCQ) was developed to examine trait curiosity in infants between 5 to 24 months. Extending this novel tool to Dutch-speaking families, this preregistered study translated the ITCQ to Dutch and examined its psychometric properties in a sample of 316 Dutch-speaking caregivers of infants in The Netherlands (5 to 24 months, 47% female). The results indicated that the ITCQ-NL reliably measures infants' general curiosity and their curiosity in three subdomains (Sensory, Investigative, and Interactive Curiosity). Furthermore, the ITCQ-NL showed moderate to good reliability over time (n = 218). Finally, we provide evidence of the questionnaire's construct validity by relating the construct to established temperament measures. To conclude, this study demonstrates the reliability and validity of the ITCQ-NL for assessing individual differences in infants' everyday trait curiosity in a Dutch population.
