Self-Report Tests of Personality01:22

Self-Report Tests of Personality

492
Self-report inventories are objective personality assessments that use multiple-choice items or numbered scales, typically ranging from 1 (strongly disagree) to 5 (strongly agree). They are often called Likert scales after Rensis Likert. These inventories are widely used due to their ease of administration and cost-effectiveness. One of the most prominent examples is the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory (MMPI), initially developed in the 1940s to assess abnormal personality traits.

Area of Science:

  • Neuroscience
  • Clinical Psychology
  • Military Health

Background:

  • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) is prevalent in military personnel.
  • Standardized symptom inventories are crucial for assessing TBI-related conditions.
  • The Neurobehavioral Symptom Inventory (NSI) is widely used in military TBI clinics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the correlation between the NSI and other commonly used clinical questionnaires.
  • To inform clinicians about the validity and redundancy of assessment tools.
  • To optimize the selection of questionnaires in TBI clinical practice.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 24,162 questionnaires from 15,428 service members in military TBI clinics (March 2009-May 2020).
  • Examined correlations between the NSI and 10 other validated instruments (e.g., PHQ-9, HIT-6, ISI).
  • Data collected as part of routine clinical care in outpatient TBI settings.

Main Results:

  • The NSI demonstrated moderate to strong correlations with most assessed questionnaires, excluding the AUDIT.
  • Significant correlations were found between NSI scores and measures of depression (PHQ-9), headache (HIT-6), insomnia (ISI), and fatigue (ESS).
  • Specific strong correlations included NSI Affective Score with PHQ-9 (r=0.86), NSI Vestibular Score with DHI (r=0.77), and NSI headache with HIT-6 (r=0.80).

Conclusions:

  • The NSI is a reliable measure that correlates well with other common assessments in military TBI care.
  • Findings support the use of the NSI as a core component of TBI assessment.
  • Clinicians can use these correlations to refine their selection of supplementary questionnaires, enhancing clinical efficiency and decision-making.
