“…Gilbert (1995) speculated that the reason for this association might be that nicotine could reduce “anhedonia, apathy, boredom, blunted affect, and emotional withdrawal while improving attentional process” (p. 172). To the extent to which symptomatology along a schizophrenic spectrum reflects etiologic commonalities (Miller, Useda, Trull, Burr, & Minks-Brown, 2001), our findings should not be considered surprising. Indeed, our findings suggest that in clinical psychotic disorders, comorbidity with TD may reflect, at least in part, a phenomenon related to personality-level characteristics and not overt psychosis.…”

In a nonclinical sample of 395 young adults, the authors evaluated the relations between major personality traits, Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (4th ed.; DSM-IV; American Psychiatric Association, 1994) personality disorder symptoms, and DSM-IV alcohol use disorders (AUDs). Consistent with previous findings, traits related to disinhibition and negative affectivity were consistently associated with AUDs, as were Cluster B personality disorder symptoms (especially antisocial and borderline disorder symptoms). Multivariate analyses revealed that Cluster B symptoms were significantly associated with AUDs above and beyond what was accounted for by personality traits. Further, the authors found differential patterns of relations between other substance use disorders (SUDs; i.e., tobacco dependence and drug use diagnoses) and personality disorder symptoms. Overall, these results suggest that personality disorder symptoms predict unique variance in SUDs that reflect maladaptive aspects of personality traits.

“…Individuals diagnosed with one or more of these disorders are known for their eccentric behavior and their lack of social relationships. Another resemblance is that all three disorders correlate with a high rate of schizophrenia in the family of origin (Miller, Useda, Trull, Burr & Minks-Brown, 2002).…”

“…Both PDs are characterized by a lack of social relationships, but the motives behind this are different. APD diagnosed individuals are socially anxious, while the ones who suffer from SPD are indifferent and aloof (Miller et al, 2002).…”

“…In the DSM, the main difference between normality and the presence of the disorder is given by expressions such as "little if any" or "almost always". In order to overcome such criticism, specialists have created alternative means of evaluation (Miller et al, 2002). One of the most important is the use of FFM and its specific tests, such as the NEO-PIR (Costa & McCrae, 1992).…”

The study describes the development and validation of two scales which can be used in evaluating schizoid and antisocial personality disorders. Both scales were developed relying on descriptions from DSM 5 and ICD 10. For validation, the scales have been tested on 125 subjects, together with two well-known psychometric instruments, DA 12profile Personality Inventory, and SCL-90. Internal consistency is calculated using Cronbach's alpha coefficient. Schizoid Scale contains 20 items and shows a good internal consistency (Cronbach's α = .77) and Antisocial Scale contains 22 items and has excellent internal consistency (Cronbach's α = .91). The correlations between the scores of the two scales and the scores of DA 12profile Personality Inventory and SCL-90 are statistically significant. The factorial analysis reveals that the two scales and DA 12profile Personality Inventory sub-scales are clustered in four factors, explaining 68.31 % of the variance. Based on these results, we discussed the importance the scales have for psychological research and for psycho-diagnostic, their limitations and our future directions of research.

“…• stressors (Munro 1999): again, comorbidity may occur and a paranoid personality disorder may confer vulnerability to such brief psychotic episodes (Miller 2001), particularly in the context of acute stress such as drastic environmental change (e.g. imprisonment, migration, induction to the military).…”

SummARyParanoid personality disorder is a neglected topic in clinical psychiatry, and is often the subject of diagnostic confusion and therapeutic pessimism. This article presents a summary of the key diagnostic issues relating to paranoid personality disorder and describes various psychological and social processes mooted to be central to the genesis of paranoid thinking and behaviours. The evidence relating to paranoid personality disorder and risk of violence is summarised and clinically useful guidance for the safe treatment of people with the disorder is outlined.
