TY - JOUR PY - 1994// TI - Relationship of NEO-PI to personality styles and severity of trauma in chronic PTSD victims JO - Journal of clinical psychology (Hoboken) A1 - Hyer, Leon A1 - Braswell, L.

SP - 699 EP - 707 VL - 50 IS - 5 N2 - The relationship of the NEO-PI to personality disorders was evaluated in a clinical population. Eighty subjects with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) were given this measure, along with the MCMI-II and PTSD and combat scales. Two questions were addressed: (1) What is the relationship of NEO-PI domains and facets to personality disorders?; and (2) What is this scale's relationship to PTSD problems? Results support previous studies that employed a clinical population, but with lower correlation coefficients. For the most part, then, the NEO-PI domains and facets correlated in expected ways with the MCMI-II. On PTSD measures, N accounted for the majority of the variance, but other domains were entered when independent regression equations were calculated to account for different personality disorders.
