Hubicka B et al. – It was found that the openness to experience and conscientiousness scales of NEO–PI–R differentiated Swedish DUI offenders from Swedish norm population. The differences between the DUI group and the general population on the on SCL–90 scales were all significant except on the Hostility scale. Two main subtypes of DUI offenders identified were roughly comparable to types I and II alcoholics, as in Cloninger’s typology. Among all the scales used (personality traits, psychiatric comorbidity and alcohol use), the only factor that was predictive for future relapses to drunk driving was the factor of depression.
