Emotional Reactivity to Social Rejection and Negative Evaluation Among Persons With Borderline Personality Features

Abstract: The present study examined the emotional reactivity of persons with heightened borderline personality (BP) features to social rejection and negative evaluation in the laboratory. Individuals with high levels of BP features (n = 30) and controls with low levels of BP features (n = 44) were randomly assigned to a condition involving negative evaluation based on writing (negative evaluation/academic), or a condition involving negative evaluation based on personal characteristics as well as social rejection (negat… Show more

“…In line with the latter [74], BPD patients with vulnerable but not grandiose traits were more sensitive to rejection in our study. As there is growing evidence for the role of rejection sensitivity in BPD [4, 75, 76], it could be worth investigating its relation to and overlap with vulnerable narcissism further.…”

“…Self-reported anxious anticipation and expectation of rejection has demonstrated very strong positive correlations with BPD symptoms (Gardner, Qualter, Styllanou, & Robinson, 2010) and BPD-related thoughts and feelings (Staebler, Helbing, Rosenbach, & Renneberg, 2010). Individuals with BPD, compared to those without, also have shown increased shame and negative affect in response to experiences of social rejection (Chapman, Walters, & Dixon Gordon, 2012).…”

“…Previous work has shown a positive relationship between rejection and negative affect, particularly hostility, both broadly (for reviews, see Gerber & Wheeler, 2009; Romero-Canyas, Downey, Berenson, Ayduk, & Kang, 2010) and in BPD participants in particular. For example, compared to non-BPD comparisons, BPD participants and participants high in BPD features reported increased negative affect (Dixon-Gordon, Chapman, Lovasz, & Walters, 2011; Dixon-Gordon, Gratz, Breetz, & Tull, 2013) and hostility (Beeney, Levy, Gatzke-Kopp, & Hallquist, 2014; Chapman, Dixon-Gordon, Butler, & Walters, 2015; Chapman, Walters, & Gordon, 2014; Renneberg et al, 2012) following experimentally induced rejection. Similar findings have been observed using EMA methods: BPD participants reported higher levels of negative affect than healthy controls following two different rejection cues, an interaction partner whom they perceived as acting in a cold-quarrelsome (Sadikaj, Moskowitz, Russell, Zuroff, & Paris, 2013) or a non-communal (Sadikaj, Russell, Moskowitz, & Paris, 2010) way.…”
