The categorical classification systems have received several criticisms from researchers and clinicians. New proposals try to present a superior, dimensional and hierarchical model. Among them are those that propose a single dimension of general psychopathology. In this study, we sought to analyze the underlying structure of pathological personality traits, looking to provide evidence for such proposals. In doing so, the internal structure of the Spanish version of the Personality Inventory for the DSM-5 [PID-5] was examined by a confirmatory factor analysis. Four alternative models were compared: the five-factor model, a second-ordered factor model, bifactor, and one-factor. The bifactor model presented a better fit to the data. This suggests that the observed variables reflect five specific pathological traits but also a general propensity for psychopathology. La psicopatología se encuentra en un momento de crisis. Los sistemas clasificatorios categoriales han recibido diversas críticas por parte de investigadores y de clínicos. Nuevas propuestas intentan presentar un modelo superador, dimensional y jerárquico. Entre ellas se destacan las que postulan la existencia de un factor general de psicopatología. En este trabajo se buscó analizar la estructura subyacente a los rasgos de personalidad patológicos del modelo dimensional alternativo del DSM-5, buscando aportar evidencia a tales propuestas. Para esto, se examinó la estructura interna de una versión en castellano del Inventario de Personalidad para el DSM-5 [PID-5], mediante análisis factorial confirmatorio. Se compararon cuatro modelos alternativos: el modelo original de cinco factores, de un factor de orden superior, modelo bifactor y unidimensional. El modelo bifactor presentó un mejor ajuste a los datos. Esto sugiere que las variables observadas reflejan cinco rasgos patológicos específicos pero también una propensión general a la psicopatología.
