“…More broadly, Criterion A can be regarded as a way to benchmark the classic construct of psychological structure or level of personality organization (Kernberg, 1967), while also capturing agentic qualities of personhood beyond stylistic expression of Criterion B maladaptive traits (Sharp and Wall, 2021). Criterion A has been found to be generally reliable, useful, and intuitive to many (see Birkhölzer et al, 2021)In a manner similar to our approach with the SIPP-118 LPF index and MMPI-based PD scales, Garcia et al (2021) deconstructed sources of variance within several measures conceptually related to LPF. They concluded that LPF is a theoretically substantive dimension of PD severity beyond general psychiatric impairment or severity of maladaptive traits.…”

The Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI) instruments are frequently used to assess personality and psychopathology. Recent publications of personality disorder (PD) spectra scales for dimensionalized PD syndromes with MMPI instruments may advance PD assessment. To this end, we examined MMPI-Second Edition (2) and MMPI-2-Restructured Form (-RF) PD Spectra scales within the lens of a contemporary dimensional model of PDs, the alternative model for personality disorders (AMPD). The core dimension of PD, Criterion A of the AMPD or level of personality functioning (LPF), was characterized quantitatively within the PD Spectra scales. By sequentially factor analyzing the scales of the Severity Indices of Personality Problems (SIPP-118) to a common general factor of PD, an index of LPF external to the MMPI item pool was established. This LPF dimension was strongly represented across most PD Spectra scales. LPF variances within the PD Spectra scales were deconstructed using measures of general demoralization (RCdemoralization) and maladaptive personality traits indexed by the Personality Psychopathology-5 (PSY-5). Nuanced LPF and PD Spectra scale relationships were discerned. Dimensionalized Antisocial PD, Borderline PD, Dependent PD, and Paranoid PD showed meaningful association with LPF after demoralization, and maladaptive trait variances were removed. The examination of the MMPI-3 item pool reveals that the existing PD Spectra scale item sets are largely carried forward in the new edition of the MMPI. This suggests PD Spectra scale correlates, including LPF relationships, may be discernable in the newest edition of the MMPI, pending future study.

“…Google Scholar lists 267,000 citations (accessed January 30, 2022). Reviews of the AMPD such as by Hopwood et al ( 2019 ); Rodriguez-Seijas et al ( 2019 ); Zimmermann et al ( 2019 ); Krueger and Hobbs ( 2020 ), or Birkhölzer et al ( 2021 ) can bring the interested reader up to date. This current Research Topic of Frontiers of Psychology, “ The AMPD in Clinical and Applied Practice: Emerging Trends and Empirical Support ,” adds new and needed applied studies illustrating the AMPD in clinical practice.…”

“…Structured interviews have only lately been developed, including the Clinical Assessment of the LPFS [36], the Semi-Structured Interview for Personality Functioning DSM-5 (STiP-5.1) [37], and the Structured Clinical Interview for the DSM-5 Alternative Model for Personality Disorders-Module I (SCID-5-AMPD-I) [38]. Recent reviews compiled evidence for the validity and reliability of these measures [17,39].…”

Purpose of Review The concept of personality functioning (Alternative DSM-5 Model of Personality Disorders) has led to increased interest in dimensional personality disorder diagnosis. While differing markedly from the current categorical classification, it is closely related to the psychodynamic concepts of personality structure and personality organization. In this review, the three dimensional approaches, their underlying models, and common instruments are introduced, and empirical studies on similarities and differences between the concepts and the categorical classification are summarized. Additionally, a case example illustrates the clinical application. Recent Findings Numerous studies demonstrate the broad empirical basis, validated assessment instruments and clinical usefulness of the dimensional concepts. Their advantages compared to the categorical approach, but also the respective differences, have been demonstrated empirically, in line with clinical observations. Summary Evidence supports the three dimensional concepts, which share conceptual overlap, but also entail unique aspects of personality pathology, respectively.
