The Egocentricity Index (EI) was assessed as a measure of self-esteem, egocentric behavior, and a basic statistic in a population of 60 predominantly behavior disordered, inpatient adolescents. Millon Adolescent Personality Inventory (MAPI) scales served as criterion measures. A low mean EI was found in these youngsters but was not mediated by low self-esteem as the Index was uncorrelated with self-esteem/self-concept measures. The Index did correlate with an histrionic type of egocentric personality style. The purported association between the EI components of pair and reflection responses was not observed here.

Millon Adolescent Personality Inventory differential diagnosis of disruptive behavior disorder vs no behavior disorder was investigated. Results were twice cross-validated. Millon adolescent Scales 4, 5, 6, G, SS, and TT were closely related to diagnosis of behavior disorder. Two psychometric rules averaged 70% hits and 35% false positives over three samples, Rule 1 of >2 elevations (baserate score >63) among Scales 6-G-SS-TT and Rule 2 of Scale 4 elevated with Scale 5 or with one of 6-G-SS-TT. An ancillary rule was highly specific to behavior disorder (90%). Two broad dimensions or factors appeared to be represented in the key scales; Scales 4 and 5 exemplified a histrionic-narcissistic factor, while the 6-G-SS-TT combination typified behavioral conflict and instability.

Adolescent Personality

A principal components factor analysis (with varimax rotation) was performed on the Millon Adolescent Personality Scale Base Rate scores of 335 adolescent psychiatric inpatients. A four-factor solution was obtained (accounting for 84.1% of the variance), which was similar to that obtained by Millon, et al. for the normative sample. Confirmatory factor analyses, however, using data obtained from computer-generated random responses to the test, also fit the inpatient and normative sample data very well. The factor structure of the Millon Adolescent Personality Inventory therefore was inferred to be driven by the considerable item-scale overlap that characterizes the test.

The current investigation was undertaken to assess the correlation of scores on the Millon Adolescent Personality Inventory and the Suicide Ideation Questionnaire—Junior. 9 adolescents (aged 15 to 17 years), on being admitted to an inpatient psychiatric facility, were given the two inventories. Of the 20 categories on the Millon, scores on 10 were significantly correlated with scores on suicide ideation. High suicide ideators tended to experience school-related problems, report poor self-concept, have poor family rapport, and be overly sensitive. Results were discussed in light of the importance of finding a subtle and commonly administered assessment tool that would be useful for those who work with adolescents at risk for suicide.
