“…This study used the same instrument and observed higher rates of personality disorder traits in transsexuals compared with a control group in 8 of the 12 traits analyzed. Comparing our results with another study that was using a large population of students agedfrom16to18 years (Maggini,Ampollini,Marchesi,Gariboldi, & Cloninger, 2000), more features of personality disorder traits in transsexuals were observed, mainly in obsessive-compulsive and paranoid, but no differences were noticed in histrionic and dependent traits. However, comparing personality traits in transsexuals with studies conducted by others using clinical psychiatric samples (obsessive-compulsive disorder, substance dependence, etc.…”

This study examined the sociodemographic characteristics and the psychological adjustment of transsexuals in Andalusia (Spain), and also analyzed the differences between female-to-male (FtM) and male-to-female (MtF) transsexuals. The sample included 197 transsexuals (101 MtF and 96 FtM) selected from those who visited the Transsexual and Gender Identity Unit at the Carlos Haya Hospital in Malaga between 2011 and 2012. Our analyses indicated that MtF transsexuals were more likely to have lower educational levels, live alone, have worked less frequently throughout their lifetime, and have engaged in prostitution. For FtM transsexuals, there were more frequent references to the mother's psychiatric history and more social avoidance and distress. Multivariate analysis showed that the number of personality dysfunctional traits and unemployment status were associated with depression in the entire sample. The following three conclusions can be made: there are significant differences between MtF and FtM transsexuals (mainly related to sociodemographic variables), depression was high in both groups, and a remarkable percentage of transsexuals have attempted suicide (22.8 %) or have had suicidal thoughts (52.3 %).

“…Harm avoidance marks subjective distress, and its correlation pattern parallels that of FFM N/NA, being most strongly and consistently high in cluster C (avoidant, dependent, and OCPD) (Farabaugh et al 2005, Maggini et al 2000, Mulder et al 1999. Novelty seeking, like FFM A and C, marks "externalizing" disorders (Krueger et al 2002(Krueger et al , 2005 including substance abuse (Ball 2004, Fassino et al 2004) and cluster B (antisocial, borderline, histrionic, and narcissistic) PD (Farabaugh et al 2005, Mulder et al 1999.…”

This chapter reviews recent (2000)(2001)(2002)(2003)(2004)(2005) personality disorder (PD) research, focusing on three major domains: assessment, comorbidity, and stability. (a) Substantial evidence has accrued favoring dimensional over categorical conceptualization of PD, and the five-factor model of personality is prominent as an integrating framework. Future directions include assessing dysfunction separately from traits and learning to utilize collateral information. (b) To address the pervasiveness and extent of comorbidity, researchers have begun to move beyond studying overlapping pairs or small sets of disorders and are developing broader, more integrated common-factor models that cross the Axis I-Axis II boundary. (c) Studies of PD stability have converged on the finding that PD features include both more acute, dysfunctional behaviors that resolve in relatively short periods, and maladaptive temperamental traits that are relatively more stable-similar to normal-range personality traits-with increasing stability until after 50 years of age. A new model for assessing PDand perhaps all psychopathology-emerges from integrating these interrelated reconceptualizations.

“…Cloninger (1991Cloninger ( , 1994 developed what he terms a "unified biosocial" theory of personality based on a combination of natural factors (genetic and biological) and learned factors (character dimensions); also see Maggini et al (2000). Leonard et al (1999) argue that while individuals may have a dominant decision making style, their actual decision making behaviors are influenced by the demands of the situation.…”

Decision making process: typology, intelligence, and optimization

Decision making is concerned with evaluating and/or ranking possible alternatives of action. In this paper, we develop a model for the process of decision making. Understanding the decision process can provide insights into how humans make decisions, understand their decision making approaches, and how they differ from each other. We believe that decision makers who are conscious of their decision process types can make more effective and balanced decisions. In this paper, we present a new decision process model based on the following four dimensions where each dimension is defined by two opposing types: Information Processing (Concrete and Abstract), Alternative Generation (Adaptive and Constructive), Alternative Evaluation (Moderate and Bold), and Decision Closure (Organized and Flexible). Furthermore, an approach for assessing each of the four decision process types by a mathematical function is presented. In a much boarder scope than decision making, these assessed functions can be used to evaluate and rank alternatives. The decision process model can also be used in conjunction with multiple criteria decision making and multiple objective optimization. The model can also be used to explain the reasons that the classical decision making models fail to describe real decision makers' behavior, and mistakenly label such behavior as irrational. The proposed decision process model can be used for developing new behavioral, rational, and intelligent decision making theories and approaches. Extensions of this work may include group decision making, organizational decision making, team formation, and risk behavior analysis. Experimental results of over four hundred engineering students are reported. A web site has been developed for users (http://car.cwru.edu/decision/). KeywordsDecision behavior · Intelligent decision making · Multi-dimensional decision process · Dynamic decision making · Irrational decision making · Multiple criteria decision making · Multiple objective optimization IntroductionThe process of decision making is multi-faceted and involved. At times this process occurs naturally and spontaneously; at other times, it may be intricately planned with much forethought. There are many factors that contribute to this process including personality attributes, temperaments, past experiences, and external factors. Decision making is the most complex human behavior. In order to improve the effectiveness of decision making, we have developed a new model for characterizing the decision making process and how different people make different decisions. We provide a set of characteristics for identifying decision making types. Understanding these types helps decision makers understand and be aware of their own preferential decision making behaviors versus those of others. In the context of decision making, "Know thyself" is about becoming more conscious about how one makes decisions. It helps one to find a model that can closely describe the decision maker's behavior. By knowing the processes of decision making and...
