- Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the factor structure of the "Personality Belief Questionnaire-Short Form" (PBQ-SF; Beck y Beck, 1991) in Colombian non-clinical population. The PBQ-SF assesses core beliefs associated to personality disorders: antisocial, avoidant, dependent, histrionic, narcissist, obsessive-compulsive, paranoid, passive-aggressive, schizoid, and borderline. 665 non-clinical participants from three cities in Colombia (Bogotá, Medellín, and Barranquilla) completed the PBQ-SF. Confirmatory factor analyses were employed to assess the structure of the questionnaire. The results confirmed the theoretical structure proposed for the PBQ-SF, obtaining good fit indexes for a nine factor model. The analyses confirmed also the existence of a secondary factor for borderline personality disorder. The alpha coefficients ranged between .68 and .84. There were gender differences for antisocial, histrionic, paranoid, and passive-aggressive personality disorders. The results confirm that PBQ is valid and presents a suitable structure for the non-clinical Colombian population, with nine primary factors, and one secondary factor (borderline).
