AB  - Personality disorders (PD) are highly prevalent and impairing stable patterns of 
      maladaptive behavior that are associated to high health care costs. Although PD 
      detection in clinical settings is a priority issue, it is still unknown which are 
      the most reliable and valid screening instruments. For this purpose, 26 studies 
      examining the diagnostic ability of 19 different screening tools that included 
      structured interviews as the gold standard were meta-analyzed. The total median 
      for the kappa was 0.40 (range 0.14 to 0.86), indicating poor to moderate 
      agreement. Brief instruments created ad hoc showed the best predictive ability 
      (Mdkappa=0.56) and are, because of their easy application, the first-line 
      screening tools.
