Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Detachment dimension in the proposed alternative system for diagnosing personality disorders is similar to the low pole of Extraversion factor in the Big Five or HEXACO model, as it includes traits such as social detachment, restricted emotional experience, and anhedonia (lack of pleasure or interest). It is opposite to the high pole of Extraversion, which includes traits such as sociability, positive emotions, and assertiveness. The other dimensions (A) Negative Affectivity, (C) Antagonism, (D) Disinhibition, and (E) Psychoticism do not directly correspond to the Extraversion factor.
