Diagnosis of DSM-III-R personality disorders by two structured interviews: patterns of comorbidity

Abstract: Substantial overlap occurred among personality disorders. In this group of patients, consistent patterns of comorbidity involving narcissistic, avoidant, and histrionic personality disorders suggest that categorical distinctions between them and certain other DSM-III-R personality disorders may be illusory. The question of which of two overlapping disorders is more valid, however, is left unanswered. For clinical purposes, a two-level diagnostic convention is proposed.

“…Within-PD comorbidity rates are high (1) in non-patient as well as patient samples (Zimmerman & Coryell, 1989), (2) using different assessment instruments (Oldham et al, 1992), and (3) across various Western cultures (Marinangeli et al, 2000). This excessive comorbidity undermines the validity and utility of the DSM-5 -II PD diagnostic system, in which the 10 PD criterion sets are intended to reflect “qualitatively distinct clinical syndromes” (APA, 2013, p. 646).…”

“…The categorical perspective, such as presented in DSM-IV-TR (American Psychiatric Association [APA], 2002), which remains in force in the DSM until today, sees PDs as distinct qualitative clinical syndromes; however, the clinical situations have shown that there are no clear limits between the different pathological aspects of personality (Hopwood et al, 2011;Millon, Millon, Meagher, Grossman, & Ramnath, 2004;Oldham et al, 1992;Widiger & Samuel, 2005).…”
