AB  - In this study, we utilized a large undergraduate sample (N = 536), oversampled 
      for the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed., text 
      revision [DSM-IV-TR]; American Psychiatric Association, 2000) 
      obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD) pathology, to compare 8 
      self-report measures of OCPD. No prior study has compared more than 3 measures, 
      and the results indicate that the scales had only moderate convergent validity. 
      We also went beyond the existing literature to compare these scales to 2 external 
      reference points: their relationships with a well-established measure of the 
      five-factor model of personality (FFM) and clinicians' ratings of their coverage 
      of the DSM-IV-TR criterion set. When the FFM was used as a point of comparison, 
      the results suggest important differences among the measures with respect to 
      their divergent representation of conscientiousness, neuroticism, and 
      agreeableness. Additionally, an analysis of the construct coverage indicated that 
      the measures also varied in terms of their representation of particular 
      diagnostic criteria. For example, whereas some scales contained items distributed 
      across the diagnostic criteria, others were concentrated more heavily on 
      particular features of the DSM-IV-TR disorder.
