Using the five-factor model to represent the DSM-IV personality disorders: An expert consensus approach.
Abstract
This study sought to extend previous work on the five-factor dimensional model (FFM) of personality disorder (PD) by developing more comprehensive FFM descriptions of prototypic cases. Specifically, the authors asked experts in each of the 10 DSM-IV PDs to rate the prototypic case by using all 30 facets of the FFM. Aggregating across raters of the given disorder generated a prototype for each disorder. In general, there was good agreement among experts and with previous theoretical and empirical FFM translations of DSM diagnostic criteria. Furthermore, the ability of the FFM explanation to reproduce the high comorbidity rates among PDs was demonstrated. The authors concluded that, with the possible exception of schizotypal PD, the DSM PDs can be understood from the dimensional perspective of the FFM. Future directions for research, including the use of the present prototypes to "diagnose" personality disorder, are discussed.

“Despite the purposeful lack of explicit operationalization of narcissism provided to these lay raters, the consensual profile of narcissistic individuals strongly matched the academician, i.e., r = 0.92 (Lynam & Widiger 2001), and clinician profiles, i.e., r = 0.95 (Samuel & Widiger 2004), of the prototypical NPD profile.”

“expert ratings by researchers and clinicians (Brown et al. 2009, Lynam & Widiger 2001, Samuel & Widiger 2004, Samuel et al. 2012, Thomas et al. 2012) and meta-analytic reviews (e.g., O'Boyle et al. 2015, Samuel & Widiger 2008a) identify these as key traits associated with narcissism and NPD.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
