      Disorder: Dimensionality, Local Reliability, and Differential Item Functioning 
      Across Gender.

AB  - This study aims at evaluating the psychometric properties of the antisocial 
      personality disorder (ASPD) criteria in a large sample of patients, most of whom 
      had one or more personality disorders (PD). PD diagnoses were assessed by 
      experienced clinicians using the Structured Clinical Interview for Diagnostic and 
      Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, 4th edition, Axis II PDs. Analyses were 
      performed within an item response theory framework. Results of the analyses 
      indicated that ASPD is a unidimensional construct that can be measured reliably 
      at the upper range of the latent trait scale. Differential item functioning 
      across gender was restricted to two criteria and had little impact on the latent 
      ASPD trait level. Patients fulfilling both the adult ASPD criteria and the 
      conduct disorder criteria had similar latent trait distributions as patients 
      fulfilling only the adult ASPD criteria. Overall, the ASPD items fit the purpose 
      of a diagnostic instrument well, that is, distinguishing patients with moderate 
      from those with high antisocial personality scores.
