Dr. Miller's program of research is informed by work on the general structure of personality, specifically the Five Factor Model of personality. Using this framework, he has published numerous articles[2] linking structural models of personality to personality disorders and to psychopathology more broadly. Dr. Miller has been a vocal advocate for trait-based approaches to personality disorder diagnosis, and he has published research examining the Alternate Model of Personality Disorder diagnosis included in the DSM-5. He also has specific interest in examining the different nomological networks of grandiose and vulnerable narcissism. Additionally, he is also active in research examining the structure of psychopathy, including debates about what components are most central (i.e., Antagonism) and which are more peripheral (i.e., Boldness/Fearless Dominance).

Honors and awards

Miller received the Theodore Millon Award in Personality Psychology from the American Psychological Foundation in 2016.[3]

gollark: A social media site is most useful if everyone you know is on it, or at least a decent fraction. Without people being there it is very hard to switch over.
gollark: Maybe the anticompetitiveness is an inevitable result of the network effects driving these sites.
gollark: Problem is, there aren't any more "public square"-y spaces which anyone actually *uses*, because the giant social media sites have pulled most traffic into their walled garden things.
gollark: That makes so much sense and has no problems.
gollark: What an extremely sensible way to derive political positions!
