Personality Assessment Inventory

The Personality Assessment Inventory, also known as PAI, is a project funded by the Psychological Assessment Resources (PAR, Inc) with the aim of understanding how personality traits and disorders relate to treatment responsivity, incarceration, and recidivism. Dr. Edelyn Verona, the PI of this project, along with a dedicated research team will collect data on the newest version of the Personality Assessment Inventory. The assessment will be administered to approximately 400 participants who are currently inmates at the Pasco County Jail. 

All information we collect as part of the PAI project is kept confidential, and participating in this study has no impact on participants' legal case, jail status, or the services they receive.

The study is currently under review by the USF IRB and additional information (e.g., recruitment flyer, consent form, among others) will be made available upon approval.
