“…and in these last 32 years, the amount of information gleaned about the psychology, psychobiology, genetics, symptoms, course, outcome, and treatments of BPD has been enormous (gunderson, 2011;leichsenring, leibing, Kruse, new, & leweke, 2011;lieb, Zanarini, schmahl, linehan, & Bohus, 2004;new, triebwasser, & Charney, 2008), even though some argued against the diagnosis then (akiskal et al, 1985) and some have argued against the diagnosis more recently (silk, 2010;Zimmerman et al, 2010).…”

Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary (2003) defines diagnosis as both "the art or act of identifying a disease from its signs and symptoms" and "a concise technical description of a taxon" (p. 344), whereas Dorland's Illustrated Medical Dictionary (1965) states that diagnosis is "the art of distinguishing one disease from another" as well as "the determination of the nature of a case of disease" (p. 411). Dorland's definition further differentiates diagnosis into clinical diagnosis, which is what clinical psychology and psychiatry often simply refer to as "diagnosis based on the symptoms shown during life, irrespective of the morbid changes producing them" (p. 412). In other words, it is the act or art of identifying a disease. the process or steps that are gone through in identifying a taxon (the name given to a group within a formal system or nomenclature) are also seen as part of diagnosis. thus, although diagnosis is often thought of as the specific taxon that is ultimately arrived at, diagnosis, by the definitions above, also includes the manner in which the diagnosis is the Value of retaInIng PersonalIty DIsorDer DIagnoses Kenneth r. sIlK

“…34 Subsequent research on the MDQ, however, has suggested that patients with positive MDQ screens were as likely to have borderline personality disorder as bipolar disorder. 35 In another study, most patients who screened positive on the MDQ 36 were found to have posttraumatic stress disorder, eating disorders and substance use disorders (based on a standardized clinical interview, SCID-IV), rather than bipolar disorder. The MDQ is a screening tool rather than a case-finding tool;, the high false positive rate requires that patients who screen positive should undergo further diagnostic assessment 37 (see example followup questions in Tables 3 and 4).…”
