Section III of the DSM-5 proposes an alternative model to assess personality disorders, in which criterion B postulated a dimensional model of dysfunctional personality traits composed of five domains and 25 traits. The aim of this paper was to analyze these domains and traits in university students of Buenos Aires. The sample consisted of 453 university students from public and private institutions (52.30% female, 47.70% male) aged between 18 and 35 years (M = 24.26, SD = 3.73). Data were collected using a survey of sociodemographic and basic academic data; as well as the Personality Inventory for DSM-5(PID-5). In order to analyze differences in domains and traits according to sex and type of career, MANOVA analyzes were carried out. Pearson's r correlations were calculated to examine the association of domains and traits with academic performance. It was found that women presented higher averages in Negative Affectivity, Anxiety and Lability Emotion and men in Antagonism, Attention Search, Insensitivity, Deception, Grandiosity, Manipulativeness, Risk Taking, and Eccentricity. Examined differences according to type of career a pattern of lower means was detected in the students of Human Sciences. When analyzing the relationship with academic performance, negative associations were found with the approval index, while positive with failed exams, failed subjects and recurring subjects. In conclusion, a first approach to the study of the model of dysfunctional traits in the local university student population was made, analyzing its link with sociodemographic and academic variables.
