  2. Dimensional models of personality disorders - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimensional_models_of...

    Dimensional models are intended to reflect what constitutes personality disorder symptomology according to a spectrum, rather than in a dichotomous way.As a result of this they have been used in three key ways; firstly to try to generate more accurate clinical diagnoses, secondly to develop more effective treatments and thirdly to determine the underlying etiology of disorders.

  3. Quasicrystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quasicrystal

    The more precise mathematical definition is that there is never translational symmetry in more than n – 1 linearly independent directions, where n is the dimension of the space filled, e.g., the three-dimensional tiling displayed in a quasicrystal may have translational symmetry in two directions.

  4. Psychodynamic Diagnostic Manual - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychodynamic_Diagnostic...

    This first dimension classifies personality patterns in two domains. First, it looks at the spectrum of personality types and places the person's personality on a continuum from unhealthy and maladaptive to healthy and adaptive. Second, it classifies how the person "organizes mental functioning and engages the world". [4]

  5. Schizotypy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizotypy

    The quasi-dimensional model may be traced back to Bleuler [2] (the inventor of the term 'schizophrenia'), who commented on two types of continuity between normality and psychosis: that between the schizophrenic and their relatives, and that between the patient's premorbid and post-morbid personalities (i.e. their personality before and after ...

  6. Temperament and Character Inventory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temperament_and_Character...

    The Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI) is an inventory for personality traits devised by Cloninger et al. [1] It is closely related to and an outgrowth of the Tridimensional Personality Questionnaire (TPQ), and it has also been related to the dimensions of personality in Zuckerman's alternative five and Eysenck's models [2] and those of the five factor model.

  7. Hierarchical Taxonomy of Psychopathology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hierarchical_taxonomy_of...

    Three fundamental findings shaped HiTOP. [2] First, psychopathology is best characterized by dimensions rather than in discrete categories. [14] Dimensions are defined as continua that reflect individual differences in a maladaptive characteristic across the entire population (e.g., social anxiety is a dimension that ranges from comfortable social interactions to distress in nearly all social ...

  8. Aubry–André model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aubry–André_model

    The Aubry–André model is a toy model of a one-dimensional crystal with periodically varying onsite energies. The model is employed to study both quasicrystals and the Anderson localization metal-insulator transition in disordered systems. It was first developed by Serge Aubry and Gilles André in 1980.

    The "Big Five" needs more coverage in journal review articles and other reliable sources. Please provide current peer-reviewed journal article that review the literature and conclude that the "Big Five" specifically is more important than other dimensional models or dimensional models in general.
