title: The factor structure of the Personality Assessment Inventory-Borderline Features (PAI-BOR) Scale in a nonclinical sample.
abstract: We evaluated the fit of Morey's (1991) proposed 4-factor structure on Personality Assessment Inventory-Borderline Features Scale (PAI-BOR; Morey, 1991) items in a sample of approximately 5,000 nonclinical participants. The proposed model did not fit the data well. Results from a series of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses suggested that a 6-factor model provided the best fit to the PAI-BOR item covariances.
