Five Factor Obsessive- Compulsive Inventory (FFOCI)

Samuel, Riddell, Lynam, Miller, & Widiger (2012)

1) Perfectionism

2) Fastidiousness

3) Punctiliousness

4) Workaholism

5) Doggedness

6) Ruminative Deliberation

7) Detached Coldness

8) Risk Aversion

9) Constricted

10) Inflexibility

11) Dogmatism

12) Excessive Worry

The 12 scales demonstrated convergent correlations with established measures of OCPD and the FFM—Samuel, Riddell, Lynam, Miller, & Widger, 2012.

The 12 scales obtained strong discriminant validity with respect to facets from other five factor model domains and OCPD for predicting a composite measure of obsessive-compulsive symptomatology—Samuel, Riddell, Lynam, Miller, & Widger, 2012.

Dependent

Dependent Personality Questionnaire (DPQ)

Tyrer, Morgan, & Cicchetti (2004).

The DPQ was also a good predictor of the diagnosis of dependent personality disorder, with sensitivity, specificity, predicted positive, and predicted negative accuracies of 87%. —Tyrer, Morgan, & Cicchetti (2004).

The internal consistency of the revised Dependent Personality Inventory (DPI-R) to .90, making the test highly reliable. —Huber (2005).

Construct validity is satisfactory for the DPI as our results support the findings of previous studies that suggest two distinct constructs form dependent personality disorder —Gude, Hoffart, Hedley & Ro, 2004.
