description The aim of this research is to perform a psychometric analysis of the reduced version of the Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI-R) in the Spanish prison population. The sample consists of 294 inmates (265 men and 29 women) who are serving prison sentences in the Penitentiary Centers of the Autonomous Community of Galicia. The average age is 41.20 years (SD = 10.51). The internal consistency of the scale showed a high value in the global scale (α = .951), with the clinical scales showing the best reliability. The confirmatory analysis showed a good fit of the model, both in the clinical scales (X2[43] = 283.108; RMSEA = .065; CFI = .892; GFI = .899; AGFI = .927; p
