Abstract
SANCHEZ, Hugo Selma et al. Adaptation of the revised Temperament and Character Inventory (TCI-R) to Uruguayan adults in Montevideo: preliminary results. Psicol. Conoc. Soc. [online]. 2017, vol.7, n.1, pp.169-198. Epub May 31, 2017. ISSN 1688-7026.
In recent years important there have been important developments in the models and theories on mental health (the DSM-5, the CIE-11 and the proposals of the NIMH are good examples). A central feature in this process is the incorporation of the neuroscientific approach, with the psychobiological model of R. C. Cloninger and colleagues being a salient example. For this reason, Latin American researchers and professionals should have instruments adequate for this new paradigm at their disposal. The TCI-R is a scale developed by Cloninger and colleagues for the assessment of the personality dimensions he proposed. This paper presents the preliminary results of the adaptation process of this scale in a sample of Montevidean adults,and is the first in Spanish-speaking South America.
