Overview
Brevity has become a hallmark of the Millon inventories. Each Millon inventory is designed to obtain the maximum amount of information with a minimum number of items and patient effort. As the need for efficient and accurate differential diagnosis of complex disorders grows, this feature has become increasingly valued.
Millon's theory is closely correlated with DSM™ classification system of personality disorders. This connection increases the diagnostic utility of Millon's instruments for clinicians.
