Description

It's Part 2 of Dan's conversation with Dr. Robert Krueger as they continue to dive deep into the alternative model of personality disorders.

Dr. Krueger is a clinical psychologist and member of the DSM-5 Personality Disorders Workgroup. Dan and Dr. Krueger explore the concept of personality disorders and the alternative model of personality disorders (AMPD). Can personality disorders be seen as extreme versions of regular personality traits, and can these traits have both adaptive and maladaptive features depending on the context? Then, Dr. Krueger goes over the importance of understanding the individual and their goals when working with personality disorders, rather than viewing them as unremittingly pathological.

Takeaways

Understanding a person's personality is important in clinical case conceptualization.

The decision-making process behind the alternative model for personality disorders involved considering the scientific evidence and the impact on individuals who have already been diagnosed.

The Alternative Model for Personality Disorders (AMPD) includes criterion A (self-related dysfunction) and criterion B (personality traits).

There is a tension between making psychiatric classification more scientifically justifiable and clinically beneficial while considering the impact on individuals.

Self-report measures for criterion A may have limitations, and additional perspectives, such as expert judgments and collateral data, can provide a more comprehensive understanding of personality pathology.
