The present study aimed to review the Isolation dimension of the Dimensional Clinical Personality Inventory (DCPI). The method was divided in two steps, the first focused on developing new items based on the literature, and the second for testing the psychometric properties of the new items dataset. The DCPI plus the Revised NEO Personality Inventory (NEO-PI-R) and the Personality Inventory for DSM-5 (PID-5) were applied in a sample of 213 subjects aging between 18 and 69 years (M = 25.56; SD = 8.70), with predominance of women (74.3%) The first step resulted in 39 items, of which 28 were new. The second stage results on a composite of 18 items, in four interpretable factors based on the internal structure analysis, Individualism, Social Isolation, Intimacy Avoidance and Emotional Apathy with internal consistency coefficients of .88 for total, and higher then .75 for each factor. The correlations of the scale with NEO-PI-R and PID-5 revealed consistent and expected effect sizes. The data reveal the adequacy of the new Isolation dimension of DCPI.
