Inventory to record interpersonal problems

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The inventory for recording interpersonal problems ( IIP-D dt. Version; English Inventory of Interpersonal Problems , IIP ) is a questionnaire for recording interpersonal problems, which is based on the interpersonal circumplex model. It is a widely used instrument in psychotherapy research .

development

Based on the observation that psychotherapy patients often report interpersonal problems, Leonard M. Horowitz tried to describe and classify these problems. On the basis of a study, Horowitz developed a first version of the IIP with originally 129 items. This instrument was later analyzed by Lynn E. Alden , Jerry S. Wiggins, and Aaron L. Pincus for the compatibility of its factor structure with the two-dimensional interpersonal circumplex model. The IIP-C, which is common today and comprises eight scales and 64 items, was constructed on this basis.

The IIP was translated into German in 1987 by Bernhard Strauss and Hans Kordy and validated for the German-speaking area.

There are published translations of the IIP for the Danish, Norwegian and Swedish language areas, as well as unpublished translations into Spanish, Portuguese, French and Dutch.

For the English-speaking area, a short form with 32 items has now been constructed and validated ( IIP Short Circumplex Form , IIP-SC ).

Scales

The 64 items of the IIP-D can be assigned to the following eight scales:

  • too autocratic / dominant (PA)
  • too quarrelsome (BC)
  • too repellent (DE)
  • too introverted (FG)
  • too submissive (HI)
  • too exploitable (JK)
  • too caring (LM)
  • too expressive (NO)

It is also possible to calculate the individual characteristics on the two main axes of the Circumplex model ( affection and dominance ).

application

The IIP was primarily designed for use in clinical settings.
