Abstract

This volume presents a meta-analysis, an original empirical study, and a press release for each, submitted as the clinical research component of the degree of Doctor in Clinical Psychology. The topic of this volume is namely alexithymia and how it is measured using the Perth Alexithymia Questionnaire. Alexithymia is a psychological construct defined by a person’s inability to identify and describe their own internal emotional states. A meta-analysis explores the psychometric properties of the Perth Alexithymia Questionnaire according to the current existing literature, including internal consistency and test-retest reliability. An original empirical study describes the psychometric properties of the PAQ in a forensic population, and explores the relationship between alexithymia and personal, social, and psychological characteristics of a forensic population.
