The Personality Inventory for DSM-5-Brief Form (PID-5-BF): Psychometric indicators in a Brazilian community sample
Objective: To investigate psychometric properties (internal structure, convergent/discriminant validity, internal consistency, and test-retest) of the Personality Inventory for DSM-5-Brief Form (PID-5-BF) in a Brazilian community sample. Method: This is a study with a psychometric design. A sample of 527 adults from the general population (69.9% women; 33.5 ± 14.0 years; 74.0% ≥ 12 years education) responded to the instrument online after the study was disseminated on social networks and to the researchers’ contacts. The NEO-PI-R and sociodemographic questionnaire were applied besides the PID-5-BF, and a retest was applied 15-30 days after the initial assessment for reliability assessment. Data were analyzed using statistical techniques (IBM SPSS19 and Factor20); the significance level was set at p ≤ 0.05 for all the analyses. Results: Internal consistency was verified using Cronbach’s alpha and was adequate (domains α ≥ 0.69; total α = 0.87), in addition to test-retest reliability (domains ICC ≥ 0.82; total ICC = 0.95). Divergences were found between the PID-5-BF different domains despite them being significantly correlated with each other. Convergent validity with the NEO-PI-R was adequate, with moderate/strong correlations between the domains theoretically associated (r > 0.38). The internal structure (Exploratory Factor Analysis) indicated that the original five-factor model (CFI = 0.991; TLI = 0.986; RMSEA = 0.033) and one-factor model were adequate (CFI = 0.908; TLI = 0.899; RMSEA = 0.089. Conclusions: The findings support using the PID-5-BF Brazilian version, which presented adequate psychometric properties comparable to the original version. This instrument can be helpful in the clinical and research fields to screen general and specific traits of personality pathology. Future studies are suggested to expand the psychometric findings among clinical samples, confirming the instrument’s scope of reach
Personality and grocery hoarding during a pandemic
This study investigates the relationship between personality traits and grocery hoarding. Data were obtained from a representative sample of the U.S. population (N = 1,149) through a web-based survey conducted during the early stages of the Covid-19 pandemic. Grocery hoarding was assessed as a dichotomous variable, capturing whether respondents stocked up on food or daily necessities beyond their usual purchases during the initial spread of Covid-19. Personality traits were measured using the Big Five Inventory (BFI-10). An independent t-test showed that individuals who engaged in grocery hoarding exhibited higher levels of Extraversion and Agreeableness compared to those who did not. Logistic regression analysis revealed that in the initial step, higher levels of Neuroticism, Extraversion, and Agreeableness significantly predicted grocery hoarding. However, after controlling for age, gender, and residential area, only Neuroticism and Agreeableness remained significant predictors, while Extraversion lost its effect. These findings suggest that grocery hoarding during the early stages of Covid-19 in the U.S. was associated with higher levels of Neuroticism and Agreeableness. The results align with some previous research but diverge from others, highlighting the need for further investigation into the role of personality traits in hoarding behaviors during crises
