Responds to comments by Y. S. Ben-Porath and N. G. Waller, noting that (1) no self-report instrument can provide a complete clinical evaluation, but personality measures may contribute to the evaluation; (2) the use of validity scales is controversial and cannot supplant clinical judgment; (3) the NEO Personality Inventory embodies a hierarchical model of personality structure that can aid the interpretation of profiles; (4) anxiety, depression, and impulsiveness (inability to control urges) are all aspects of neuroticism; and (5) the time has come for a systematic reevaluation of all measures used in clinical assessment.
