Background. Psychiatric disorders are purported to play a role in the aetiology of violent crime, but evidence for their role in sexual offending is less clear. The authors investigated the prevalence of psychiatric morbidity and personality disorders in elderly incarcerated sex offenders compared with elderly non-sex offenders.Method. One hundred and one sex offenders and 102 non-sex offenders aged over 59 years were interviewed using standardized semi-structured interviews for psychiatric illness (the Geriatric Mental State) and the personality disorder (Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV personality disorders). Data on demographic, offence and victim characteristics were collected.Results. Six per cent of the elderly sex offenders had a psychotic illness, 7% a DSM-IV major depressive episode and 33% a personality disorder; and 1% had dementia. These prevalence figures were not different from the elderly non-sex offenders interviewed in this study. Differences emerged at the level of personality traits with sex offenders having more schizoid, obsessive–compulsive, and avoidant traits, and fewer antisocial traits compared with non-sex offenders.Conclusions. Elderly sex offenders and non-sex-offenders have similar prevalence rates of mental illness. However, elderly sex offenders have increased schizoid, obsessive–compulsive, and avoidant personality traits, supporting the view that sex offending in the elderly is associated more with personality factors than mental illness or organic brain disease.

Objective: Do patients with pain accounted for by psychological factors (P) differ in their self-concept and personality disorders from patients with major depression (D) and healthy controls (C)? Method: Thirty hospitalized P-patients (DSM-IV, 307.80) and 30 hospitalized D-Patients (DSM-III-R) were given the Beck Depression Inventory on admission (BDI-1) and at discharge (BDI-2). Together with BDI-2, patients filled out the Personality Disorder Questionnaire for DSM-III-R (PDQR) and the Frankfurt Self-Concept Scales (FSKN). Thirty-two healthy comparisons (C) completed the same questionnaires. Results: BDI-2 showed no significant differences between groups P and D, a prerequisite for the comparison of psychological traits. PDQR differed in the three groups. D showed more dependent, obsessive-compulsive, and histrionic personality features than group P. The three groups differed in FSKN total score and all 10 subscales (C (healthiest self-concept) > P > D). Groups P and D were different (P > D) in total score and subscales: performance, problem coping, confidence in behavior and decision taking, and self-esteem. Ten P-patients with pathological BDI-2 (PD) had significantly more disturbed PDQR and FSKN scores than the non-depressed (PND), and closely resembled the D-patients. Conclusions: Personality disorders and self-concept are not homogenous in female patients with P. Subgroup PND differs from patients with depression (fewer personality disorders, better self-concept), whereas subgroup PD closely resembles them.

The objective of this study was to identify personality disorders comorbid to BPD that confer greater risk for the presence of severe dissociative experiences. Three hundred and one outpatients with a primary diagnosis of BPD were evaluated using the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis II personality disorders (SCID-II), the Borderline Evaluation of Severity Over Time (BEST) and the Dissociative Experiences Scale (DES). Our results show that the most frequent personality disorders comorbid to BPD were paranoid (83.2%, n = 263) and depressive (81.3%, n = 257). On average, the patients scored with 43.3 points and 28.6 points in the BEST and DES scales respectively. We categorized the sample into patients with and without severe dissociative experiences (41% were positive). A logistic regression model revealed that Schizotypal, Obsessive-compulsive and Antisocial personality disorders conferred greater risk for the presence of severe dissociative experiences. The results suggest that a large proportion of patients with BPD present a high rate of severe dissociative experiences and that some clinical factors such as personality comorbidity confer greater risk for dissociation, which is related to greater dysfunction and suffering, as well as a worse progression of the BPD.

Objective: We aimed to describe the prevalence and age distribution of personality disorders and their comorbidity with other psychiatric disorders in an age-stratified sample of Australian women aged ⩾25 years. Methods: Individual personality disorders (paranoid, schizoid, schizotypal, histrionic, narcissistic, borderline, antisocial, avoidant, dependent, obsessive-compulsive), lifetime mood, anxiety, eating and substance misuse disorders were diagnosed utilising validated semi-structured clinical interviews (Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV-TR Axis I Disorders, Research Version, Non-patient Edition and Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis II Personality Disorders). The prevalence of personality disorders and Clusters were determined from the study population ( n = 768), and standardised to the Australian population using the 2011 Australian Bureau of Statistics census data. Prevalence by age and the association with mood, anxiety, eating and substance misuse disorders was also examined. Results: The overall prevalence of personality disorders in women was 21.8% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 18.7, 24.9). Cluster C personality disorders (17.5%, 95% CI: 16.0, 18.9) were more common than Cluster A (5.3%, 95% CI: 3.5, 7.0) and Cluster B personality disorders (3.2%, 95% CI: 1.8, 4.6). Of the individual personality disorders, obsessive-compulsive (10.3%, 95% CI: 8.0, 12.6), avoidant (9.3%, 95% CI: 7.1, 11.5), paranoid (3.9%, 95% CI: 3.1, 4.7) and borderline (2.7%, 95% CI: 1.4, 4.0) were among the most prevalent. The prevalence of other personality disorders was low (⩽1.7%). Being younger (25–34 years) was predictive of having any personality disorder (odds ratio: 2.36, 95% CI: 1.18, 4.74), as was being middle-aged (odds ratio: 2.41, 95% CI: 1.23, 4.72). Among the strongest predictors of having any personality disorder was having a lifetime history of psychiatric disorders (odds ratio: 4.29, 95% CI: 2.90, 6.33). Mood and anxiety disorders were the most common comorbid lifetime psychiatric disorders. Conclusions: Approximately one in five women was identified with a personality disorder, emphasising that personality disorders are relatively common in the population. A more thorough understanding of the distribution of personality disorders and psychiatric comorbidity in the general population is crucial to assist allocation of health care resources to individuals living with these disorders.

The aim of this study was to compare the prevalence of Personality Disorders assessed by Structured Clinical Interview for Axis-II in 155 inpatients diagnosed with Unipolar Disorder vs inpatients with Bipolar Disorder (39). The most frequent Axis II diagnoses among Unipolar inpatients were Borderline (31.6%), Dependent (25.2%), and Obsessive-Compulsive (14.2%) Personality Disorders. Among Bipolar inpatients, the most prevalent personality disorders were Borderline (41%), Narcissistic (20.5%), Dependent (12.8%), and Histrionic disorders (10.3%). Using chi squared analysis, few differences in distribution emerged between the two groups: Unipolar patients had more recurrent Obsessive-Compulsive Personality Disorder than Bipolar patients (χ12 = 6.24, p < .005). Comorbid Narcissistic Personality Disorder was significantly more frequent in the Bipolar than in the Unipolar group (χ12 = 6.34, p < .01). Considering the three clusters (DSM–IV classification), there was a significant difference between the groups, Cluster C (fearful, avoidant) diagnoses being more frequent in the Unipolar than in the Bipolar group (48.4% vs 20.5%, respectively). Cluster B (dramatic, emotionally erratic) diagnoses were found more frequently in patients with Bipolar Disorders (71.8% vs 45.2% in Unipolar patients, χ22 = 10.1, p < .006). The differences in the distribution and prevalence of Personality Disorders between the two patient groups are discussed.

Background & objective: Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is the 4th most prevalent psychiatric disorder in Epidemiological Catchment Area (ECA) Survey and most individuals with OCD have co-morbid personality disorders (PD). The present study was undertaken to find the prevalence of PD among patients with OCD and the sociodemographic determinants that influence the development PD in patients with OCD. Methods:The cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in OCD clinic of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University from January 2015 to September 2016. Respondents were recruited from the OCD patients diagnosed on the basis of DSM-IV criteria and face to face interview was conducted with the help of the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV Axis II Disorders (SCID-II questionnaire). The main outcome variable was PD in patients of OCD and the exposure variables (determinants) were selected sociodemographic characteristics. Result: The mean age of the OCD patients was (28 ± 8.7) years. Almost half (49%) of OCD patients belonged to the age group 20-30 years. Female respondents were 53.6%. Among the respondents, 62% had co-morbid PD. The mean age of the OCD patients with PD was observed to be significantly higher (29.1 ± 9.1 years) than those without PD (26.2 ± 7.8 years) (p = 0.047). Male OCD patients were 2.4 (95% CI of OR: 1.2 – 4.7) times more likely to have PD than their female counterparts (p = 0.012). Ethnic groups other than Muslims tend to be associated with PD more often and carry more than 8-fold (95% CI of OR: 8.4 – 37.2) higher risk of having the condition (p = 0.001). Likewise, other occupants were nearly 2(95% CI of OR: 0.98 – 3.74) times more prone to have PD than the students (p = 0.056). Conclusion: Personality Disorders are highly prevalent among people with OCD which remains underdiagnosed & under-addressed. Male OCD patients, non-Muslims and occupants other than students are more prone to have PD. Persons with Personality Disorders are far more likely to refuse psychiatric help and deny their problems.
