Abstract. One of the most common personality disorders among adolescents and young adults is the Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD). The objective of current study was to assess three questionnaires that can reliably screen for BPD in adolescents and young adults (N = 53): the McLean Screening Instrument for BPD (MSI-BPD; Zanarini et al., 2003 ), the Personality Diagnostic Questionnaire 4th edition – BPD scale (PDQ-4 BPD; Hyler, 1994 ), and the SCID-II Patient Questionnaire – BPD scale (SCID-II-PQ BPD). The nine criteria of BPD according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-IV (DSM-IV; APA, 1994 ) were measured with the Structural Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis II disorders – BPD scale (SCID-II; First, Spitzer, Gibbon, Williams, & Benjamin, 1995 ). Correlations between the questionnaires and the SCID-II were calculated. In addition, the sensitivity and specificity of the questionnaires were tested. All instruments predicted the BPD diagnosis equally well.

The purpose of this study was to identify diagnostic and severity subgroups within a cohort of patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD). Of 171 patients clinically diagnosed with BPD, 132 were Diagnostic Interview for Borderlines (DIB) positive. Through a process of random selection, 41 of the DIB positive subjects were also interviewed with the revised version of the DIB (DIBR) and approximately one half with two semi-structured research interviews, the Schedule for Affective Disorders (SADS) and the Personality Disorder Examination (PDE). All subjects completed four self-report measures of problematic behaviours, symptoms and social adaptation. The analyses included examination of: 1. the correspondence of the BPD diagnosis across the DIB, the DIBR and the PDE; 2. the association between DIBR scoring levels and scores on measures of symptoms and behavioural status; and 3. the co-occurrence of BPD with Axis I and other Axis II disorders. Correlations and analyses of variance between both the DIB and DIBR scoring levels and the scores on the four symptom and behavioural measures showed that the scoring levels (DIB 7 to 10; DIBR 8 to 10) could be used to distinguish three subgroups of BPD. The three groups differed in terms of concordance for BPD with the PDE and in terms of patterns of overlap with DSM-III-R, Axis I and other Axis II disorders. This study shows that BPD subgroups can be located on a continuum of symptomatic and behavioural severity and that each subgroup has a specific pattern of overlap with Axis I and other Axis II disorders.

SummaryA total of 3674 psychiatric out-patients were evaluated with a semi-structured diagnostic interview for DSM-IV borderline personality disorder (BPD). The affective instability criterion had a sensitivity of 92.8%, higher than the sensitivities of the other eight BPD criteria. The negative predictive value of the affective instability criterion was 99%. We recommend that clinicians screen for BPD in the same way that they screen for other psychiatric disorders: by enquiring about a single feature of the disorder (i.e. affective instability), the presence of which identifies most patients with the disorder and the absence of which rules out the disorder.

BackgroundIndividuals with borderline personality disorder (BPD) frequently display co-morbid mental disorders. These disorders include ‘internalizing’ disorders (such as major depressive disorder and anxiety disorders) and ‘externalizing’ disorders (such as substance use disorders and antisocial personality disorder). It is hypothesized that these disorders may arise from latent ‘internalizing’ and ‘externalizing’ liability factors. Factor analytic studies suggest that internalizing and externalizing factors both contribute to BPD, but the extent to which such contributions are familial is unknown.MethodParticipants were 368 probands (132 with BPD; 134 without BPD; and 102 with major depressive disorder) and 885 siblings and parents of probands. Participants were administered the Diagnostic Interview for DSM-IV Personality Disorders, the Revised Diagnostic Interview for Borderlines, and the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV.ResultsOn confirmatory factor analysis of within-person associations of disorders, BPD loaded moderately on internalizing (factor loading 0.53, s.e. = 0.10, p < 0.001) and externalizing latent variables (0.48, s.e. = 0.10, p < 0.001). Within-family associations were assessed using structural equation models of familial and non-familial factors for BPD, internalizing disorders, and externalizing disorders. In a Cholesky decomposition model, 84% (s.e. = 17%, p < 0.001) of the association of BPD with internalizing and externalizing factors was accounted for by familial contributions.ConclusionsFamilial internalizing and externalizing liability factors are both associated with, and therefore may mutually contribute to, BPD. These familial contributions account largely for the pattern of co-morbidity between BPD and internalizing and externalizing disorders.

Objectives: To determine if differing developmental factors show specificity to differing manifestations of borderline personality disorder (BPD). Methods: A clinical sample of 73 females diagnosed with BPD undertook a psychiatrist interview and completed self-report questionnaires, including the semi-structured Diagnostic Interview for DSM-IV Personality Disorders (DIPD-IV) assessing for BPD status. A set of negative and potentially traumatic developmental factors were included in the assessment. Results: Childhood sexual abuse, affirmed by 49% of the sample, showed specificity in being linked with DIPD-defined affective instability. DIPD-defined identity disturbance also showed specificity in being associated only with reporting significant non-sexual developmental trauma. DIPD-defined anger and paranoia/dissociation showed minimal specificity and were associated with most antecedent developmental factors in adulthood. Conclusions: Differing manifestations of BPD are likely to be shaped by specific and non-specific developmental events. Clarification of such links has the potential to shape more specific therapeutic interventions.

Antipsychotics are recommended for the treatment of impulsive dyscontrol and cognitive perceptual symptoms of borderline personality disorder (BPD). Three reports supported the efficacy of oral risperidone on BPD psychopathology. Paliperidone ER is the metabolite of risperidone with a similar mechanism of action, and its osmotic release reduces plasmatic fluctuations and antidopaminergic effects. The aim of this study is to evaluate efficacy and safety of paliperidone ER in BPD patients. 18 outpatients with a DSM-IV-TR diagnosis of BPD were treated for 12 weeks with paliperidone ER (3–6 mg/day). They were assessed at baseline, week 4, and week 12, using the CGI-Severity item, the BPRS, the HDRS, the HARS, the SOFAS, the BPD Severity Index (BPDSI), and the Barratt Impulsiveness Scale (BIS-11). Adverse events were evaluated with the DOTES. Paliperidone ER was shown to be effective and well tolerated in reducing severity of global symptomatology and specific BPD symptoms, such as impulsive dyscontrol, anger, and cognitive-perceptual disturbances. Results need to be replicated in controlled trials.
