Abstract

Histrionic personality disorder (HPD) is a common and problematic form of personality pathology involving excessive attention-seeking, often through overly sexualized means. Much of the research on HPD has involved the association between HPD characteristics and basic temperament traits. Given the sometimes hypersexualized presentation of HPD, another potential influence on HPD characteristics may be exposure to sexual assault. However, there is little research on the association between sexual assault and HPD in general or with respect to temperament traits in particular. In this study, we examine the relative associations of sexual assault and temperament traits with the cognitive characteristics of HPD in a large sample of college students (N = 965) using a Bayesian approach to the analysis of covariance. Results suggest that sexual assault is associated with HPD cognitive characteristics over and above the robust influence of temperament traits. The study findings have implications for future research on and clinical intervention with people with HPD.

性侵犯与气质特质对表演型人格障碍认知特征的相对影响。

表演型人格障碍(HPD)是一种常见的、有问题的人格病理学形式，涉及过度寻求关注，通常通过过度性化的手段。许多关于HPD的研究都涉及到HPD特征与基本气质特征之间的联系。考虑到火奴鲁鲁警局有时表现出过度的性行为，另一个对火奴鲁鲁警局特征的潜在影响可能是遭受性侵犯。然而，关于性侵犯和火奴鲁鲁警局之间的联系的研究很少，特别是关于气质特征的研究。本研究以965名大学生为研究对象，采用贝叶斯协方差分析方法，探讨了性侵犯、气质特征与HPD认知特征之间的相关关系。结果表明，性侵犯与HPD认知特征的关系超过了气质特征的强大影响。该研究结果对HPD患者的未来研究和临床干预具有重要意义。
