Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI) Over-reporting Scale Effectiveness

Another first author pub by the most excellent Nicole Morris!

Nicole did some excellent work to build on the limited literature on PAI validity scales, evaluating their effectiveness in a military sample evaluated within a neuropsychology clinic. We used performance validity (PVT; MSVT, NVMSVT) to compare group differences. Limited work has been done prior to now on some of the PAI validity scales (see McCredie & Morey, 2018), so expanding this literature for one of the most popular and widely used personality measures (Ingram et al., 2019, 2022; Mihura et al., 2017; Wright et al., 2017) is critical. I’ve reproduced the classification accuracy statistics below for ease. The entire paper may be downloaded HERE.
