本研究以214名退伍军人为样本，利用诊断访谈和多维人格问卷-简要表（MPQ-BF; Patrick, Curtin, & Tellegen, 2002）的数据，考察了PTSD共病的结构及其与人格的关系。验证性因子分析支持外部化构成的三因子模型。恐惧和痛苦因素。研究边缘型人格障碍的位置的分析显示，这种障碍在外化和痛苦方面都有显著的交叉负荷。结构方程模型显示，特质性负性情绪与所有三种共病因素显著相关，而积极情绪和约束分别与苦恼和外化有特定的关联。这些结果揭示了边缘型人格障碍在内化/外化模型中的位置，并阐明了人格的广泛维度对共病模式的相对影响。Elsevier Ltd.出版。
This study examined the structure of PTSD comorbidity and its relationship to personality in a sample of 214 veterans using data from diagnostic interviews and the Multidimensional Personality Questionnaire-Brief Form (MPQ-BF; Patrick, Curtin, & Tellegen, 2002). Confirmatory factor analyses supported a three factor model composed of Externalizing. Fear and Distress factors. Analyses that examined the location of borderline personality disorder revealed significant cross-loadings for this disorder on both Externalizing and Distress. Structural equation models showed trait negative emotionality to be significantly related to all three comorbidity factors whereas positive emotionality and constraint evidenced specific associations with Distress and Externalizing, respectively. These results shed new light on the location of borderline personality disorder within the internalizing/externalizing model and clarify the relative influence of broad dimensions of personality on patterns of comorbidity.
