“…Meta‐regressions also indicated that the associations between ACEs and cluster C personality disorders decreased with sample mean age. This is in line with previous observations that the symptoms of the personality disorders in this cluster seem to decrease throughout adulthood (Skodol et al, 2007; Wright et al, 2011; but see Bangash, 2022; Cruitt & Oltmanns, 2018; Wu & Francois, 2021). In contrast, the percentage of females in the sample did not influence any of the associations investigated in this study.…”

IntroductionStudies suggest that adverse childhood events (ACEs) may contribute to the onset and development of cluster C personality disorders. However, the association between ACEs and these disorders remains unclear in terms of consistency across studies and effect magnitude, as well as generalizability within cluster C. The current meta‐analysis aimed to examine the associations between ACEs and cluster C personality disorders based on the available literature.MethodsSystematic searches were conducted in PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science and PsychInfo. Forty‐eight eligible studies were included in the analyses, and pooled effect sizes were estimated both at the level of cluster C and at the level of each specific disorder. Moderation and meta‐regression analyses were also conducted.ResultsACEs were consistently associated with overall cluster C, as well as each of the specific disorders in this cluster. Sources of heterogeneity included type of instrument used to assess ACEs (questionnaires > interviews) and type of instrument used to assess the personality disorders (clinical interviews > questionnaires, as well as their combination with interview). The associations between ACEs and all cluster C personality disorders decreased with age.ConclusionsACEs are consistently associated with all cluster C personality disorders. Future work could approach the mechanisms underlying this association, preferably using longitudinal designs and considering the potential sources of effect variability identified in the present study.

“…This editorial reviews and comments on a set of prospective follow‐up studies that confirm, challenge, and expand current consensus on the course and consequences of personality pathology. As I will discuss, these clarifications and expansions are important if we were to move forward the assessment and management of personality disorder especially in later life, as discussed in one of the articles in this special issue (Bangash, 2022). To this end, this special issue of Personality and Mental Health communicates important lessons we can draw on for translational purposes, as well as for continued nosological reform.…”

New data toward fulfilling the promise of the ICD‐11 severity criterion

Great progress has been made in furthering our understanding of the long‐term course of personality pathology. However, our knowledge about the long‐term outcomes of personality disorder, thus far, is based on a polythetic and categorical definition of personality disorder. This special issue brings together a set of papers reporting on the results of the 30‐year prospective study, the Nottingham Study of Neurotic Disorder, in addition to presenting a study protocol for a future study, the Boston (UK) Personality Project, and results from a study of lived experience of individuals who have been in treatment for personality challenges. Together, these papers highlight the value in viewing personality pathology not as a categorically defined disorder, but as a severity criterion related to functioning. This special issue paves the way for considering how to further refine and conceptualize the general severity criterion common to all manifestations (types) of personality disorder.
