This work presents a research carried out in Spainwith 7011 patients who completed the Millon Clinical Multiaxial Inventory (MCMI-III). Prevalence and percentages of clinical personality traits and clinical syndromes were studied, finding a higher prevalence of compulsive, narcissistic, and histrionic personality traits, and of the clinical anxiety syndrome. Also, we found (a) higher ratings in men than in women for traits/syndromes narcissistic, paranoid, antisocial, schizoid, thought disorder, substance abuse and alcohol abuse scales; and (b) higher ratings in women than in men for traits/syndromes depressive, dependent, avoidant, borderline, negativistic, aggressive-sadistic, dysthymic, somatoform, and posttraumatic stress disorder. Correlations between the personality scales and the clinical syndromes (i.e., Axis II and Axis I variables), controlling for the effect of sex, were statistically significant (the compulsive, narcissistic, and histrionic scales correlated negatively).
Este trabajo presenta una investigación con 7011 pacientes a los que se les ha aplicado el Inventario Clínico Multiaxial de Millon (MCMI-III) en España. Se estudia la prevalencia y porcentajes de los rasgos clínicos de personalidad y de síndromes clínicos encontrándose mayor frecuencia de rasgos de personalidad compulsiva, narcisista e histriónica y, como síndromes clínicos, del síndrome de ansiedad. Se analiza la prevalencia según el sexo, hallando(a) mayor frecuencia de hombres en los rasgos/síndromes narcisista, paranoide, antisocial, esquizoide, trastorno del pensamiento, abuso de sustancias y abuso de alcohol; y (b) mayor frecuencia de mujeres en las personalidades depresiva, dependiente, evitativa, límite, negativista, y agresivo-sádica, y en los trastornos distímico, somatomorfo, y trastorno de estrés postraumático. Además, se presentan los coeficientes de correlación entre las escalas del Eje II y las del Eje I, controlando el efecto de la variable sexo. Todas las escalas de personalidad correlacionaron con los síndromes clínicos de manera significativa (las escalas compulsiva, narcisista e histriónica correlacionaban en sentido negativo).
