Reporting of personality disorder symptoms in a forensic inpatient sample: Effects of mode of assessment and response style
نویسندگان
چکیده
Self-report measures of personality disorder are known to over-report personality disorder traits consistently relative to measures based on a clinical interview. This study tests the hypothesis that there is a relationship between a participant’s tendency to give socially desirable responses and the discrepancy between their results on self-report and interviewbased measures. The relative over-reporting of the self-report measure, the PDQ4, was confirmed, but no association was found between the magnitude of the over-reporting and the tendency to give socially desirable responses.
