Abstract
This study examined the usefulness of the SCID-PQ on a sample of 82 inpatients as a screening measure for Axis II disorders. The SCID-PQ proved effective (i.e., resulted in a very low false negatives and moderate false positives) in screening for seven of the 11 DSM-III-R personality disorders. Of the four remaining disorders, minor modifications were suggested which resulted in improved classification rates for dependent and schizoid personality disorders.
