I would also consider social factors. I always found it easy to make good friends when I lived in the U.S., but much harder to break into social circles in other countries. And how easy is it to continue favourite hobbies in the new place? I have had to give up some hobbies due to moves.

I have moved countries several times as an adult and often for different reasons. Most recently from New Zealand to Australia so my partner could be closer to family. I would consider actual access to healthcare as a major issue- "universal" healthcare is not always as great as some think.

This is a great paper! I have for years tried to minimize the use of this language in articles published in the Journal of Personality Assessment. It has been an uphill battle to say the least, but a worthy one. This article will be a helpful reference in the future when educating authors!

We were of course constrained to the MMPI-3 item pool, but 335 items does provide for ample opportunities to create scales. Our new ANT scale does converge with other DSM-5 AMPD and ICD-11 measures of antagonism/dissociality across measurement modalities. 2/2

The MMPI-3 already measures the PSY-5 model but Al Harkness's view of Aggressiveness, which is the antagonism counterpart in that model, is a bit different from traditional views of this construct. the AGGR scale is also too narrow to be an antagonism measure. 1/2

For those unfamiliar, the Melbourne Cup is a horse race and the AFL is the Australian Football League (Aussie rules).
