Bar Chart and Performance Table [Heading] Performance
Performance Narrative [Text Block]

The bar chart and table immediately following illustrate the variability of the Portfolio’s returns and are meant to provide some indication of the risks of investing in the Portfolio. The ETF Class shares of the Portfolio are a new

class of shares for which performance information is not available, and therefore, for periods prior to the inception of the ETF Class shares, the bar chart and table show performance information for the Institutional Class shares of the Portfolio, a mutual fund class of shares of the Portfolio not offered in this Prospectus. Returns of the ETF Class shares of the Portfolio may vary from the returns of the Institutional Class shares due to differences in expenses. The bar chart shows the changes in performance of the Institutional Class shares of the Portfolio from year to year. The table illustrates how annualized returns of the Institutional Class shares of the Portfolio for certain periods, both before and after taxes, compare with those of a broad measure of market performance. The Portfolio’s past performance (before and after taxes) is not an indication of future results. Updated performance information for the Portfolio can be obtained by visiting https://www.dimensional.com/us-en/funds.

The after-tax returns presented in the table for the Portfolio are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor’s tax situation and may differ from those shown in the table. In addition, the after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold shares of the Portfolio through tax-advantaged arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.
