Within this framework, the present study aimed to investigate the associations and centrality of ASPD criteria and maladaptive trait domains in mental health professionals' conceptualization of the disorder, thus taking into account both categorical and dimensional approaches to personality pathology. The research involved 322 mental health professionals who reviewed the importance of ASPD criteria (Section II) and maladaptive trait domains (Criterion B of Section III). Data were analyzed using a network analysis approach. Both edge weights and node centrality were investigated. Within the criteria network, all centrality indices unanimously highlighted the role of lack of remorse. Regarding the trait domain network, the contributions of antagonism, detachment, and disinhibition were emphasized. The findings of this research collect and systematize the mental health professionals' perspective through the network analysis approach to provide further understanding of ASPD's central features. Such data may have useful practical implications for both research and clinical practice.","PeriodicalId":46871,"journal":{"name":"Personality and Mental Health","volume":"19 2","pages":"e70017"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12058318/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144054070","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Three hundred twenty seven clinical professionals completed a 48-question true/false quiz testing knowledge of GPM, with a small subset (N = 33) that also completed a 13-item assessment of attitudes about BPD. Knowledge of GPM did not differ between course participants of different disciplines (e.g., psychiatry, psychology, and social work) but did differ according to level of GPM training and experience practicing GPM. Clinicians with experience working in specialty treatment programs focused on BPD scored higher than clinicians without this type of experience, but the scores of these more generalist clinicians were lower only by a few points. Using linear regression, we analyzed the association between GPM knowledge and negative clinician attitudes toward care of people with BPD. Greater knowledge of GPM was associated with decreased ratings of dislike of BPD patients, avoidance of treating them, and hopelessness about their prognosis.","PeriodicalId":46871,"journal":{"name":"Personality and Mental Health","volume":"19 2","pages":"e70021"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144040970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

BPD has a significant impact not just on individuals with the diagnosis but also on those around them. Currently, no medication is licenced for BPD. Despite this, it is common for people with BPD to be prescribed multiple psychotropics. All psychotropic medications are associated with adverse events. A systematic review was conducted to explore factors that influence prescribing in adult BPD patients. Searches were conducted of EMBASE, PsycINFO, PubMed, EThOS and Web of Science. One-hundred and two unique studies were identified, of which 13 suitable studies with diverse methodologies were included in the final synthesis. Of these, seven studies produced quantitative results, whereas the remaining six produced qualitative results. The synthesis identified several demographic factors statistically associated with prescribing. Most notably, prescribing was more likely in older patients and those with comorbid conditions. In addition to demographic factors identified, two key themes were generated from analysis of qualitative data from both healthcare professionals (HCPs) and patients discussing drivers: that the patient-HCP relationship and the care pathway are crucial to the prescribing process from both perspectives. Prescribing medications for BPD is common, but there is limited data on the factors that affect this prescribing choice. HCPs must be aware of their own roles and perceptions in their relationships with BPD patients so that patients receive the most suitable treatment.","PeriodicalId":46871,"journal":{"name":"Personality and Mental Health","volume":"19 2","pages":"e70014"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11864820/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143516950","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Given this concern, we assessed and compared GAIs' (ChatGPT-3.5, 4, and Google Gemini) symptom recognition and public stigma for a woman and man vignette character with BPD. The GAIs' responses were also compared to a sample of mental health care practitioners (MHCPs; n = 218). Compared to MHCPs, GAI showed more empathy for the characters. GAI were also less likely to view the characters' mental health symptoms as developmental stage problems and rated these symptoms as more chronic and unchangeable. The GAI also rated the vignette characters as less trustworthy and more likely to have difficulty forming close relationships than the MHCPs. Across GAI, gender biases were found with Google Gemini showing less empathy, more negative reactions, and greater public stigma, particularly for a woman with BPD, than either ChatGPT-3.5 or ChatGPT-4. A woman with BPD was also rated as having more chronic mental health problems than a man by all GAI. Overall, these results suggest that GAI may express empathy but reflects gender bias and stereotyped beliefs for people with BPD. Greater transparency and incorporation of knowledgeable MHCPs and people with lived experiences are needed in GAI training to reduce bias and enhance their accuracy prior to use in mental health applications.","PeriodicalId":46871,"journal":{"name":"Personality and Mental Health","volume":"19 2","pages":"e70018"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144001196","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Borderline personality disorder is characterised by emotional instability, impulsive behaviours and difficulties in maintaining stable relationships. Although compassionate acts are known to enhance recovery and well-being, individuals with borderline personality disorder often struggle with these behaviours. This review identifies several key barriers, including adverse childhood experiences, stigma and systemic discrimination, known as sanism, and internal challenges such as self-judgement, shame and fear of compassion. By synthesising findings from 29 studies, this review highlights the complex interplay between these factors and their impact on the ability of individuals with borderline personality disorder to engage in compassionate behaviours. The findings emphasise the need for personalised, trauma-informed therapeutic interventions and broader societal changes to foster a more compassionate environment for individuals with borderline personality disorder. Future research should focus on longitudinal studies, inclusion of individuals with lived experiences and exploring diverse sources of compassion to enhance understanding and support recovery in this population.","PeriodicalId":46871,"journal":{"name":"Personality and Mental Health","volume":"19 2","pages":"e70020"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC12004351/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144024718","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Individuals with personality disorders (n = 218; Sample 1) and mental health providers (n = 75; Sample 2) were recruited online via postings on social media, online forums, and email listservs. Individuals with PDs endorsed several factors of internalized stigma including alienation, social withdrawal, stereotype endorsement, stigma resistance, and reported significant discriminatory experiences. Results also showed that provider attitudes towards those with PDs are mixed but they largely rejected microaggressions, apart from negative reactions, and appeared aware of the negative consequences of mental health stigma. However, providers may appear patronizing when providing unwanted advice to those with a mental illness. By gaining a better understanding of the experiences of individuals living with a PD and those who treat them, we can more effectively counter harmful stigmatization and discrimination.","PeriodicalId":46871,"journal":{"name":"Personality and Mental Health","volume":"19 2","pages":"e70024"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144040596","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two hundred seventy-one providers who were randomly assigned to one of three identical vignette conditions, with SGM status manipulated, indicated their agreement with the BPD diagnosis and explained the reason for their agreement. Results from thematic content analyses illustrated that providers referenced three themes when explaining their agreement with the BPD diagnosis: (1) BPD as provisional, (2) BPD as certain, and (3) BPD criteria met. Providers referenced a greater variety of themes to explain their disagreement with the diagnosis: (1) situational factors, (2) insufficient time course, (3) diagnostic criteria unmet, (4) insufficient assessment information, (5) differential diagnosis, (6) developmental immaturity, and (7) stigma concerns. None of these justifications were differentially employed based on the SGM status of the vignette. However, differences were observed based on providers' backgrounds; psychologists more frequently cited concerns about time course, developmental immaturity, and having insufficient assessment information than psychiatrists, counselors, and social workers in disagreeing with the BPD diagnosis. Implications for reducing BPD diagnostic bias are discussed.","PeriodicalId":46871,"journal":{"name":"Personality and Mental Health","volume":"19 2","pages":"e70012"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2025-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11871507/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143531914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Participants were mental health clinicians (N = 9) with experience treating NPD. Participants completed semistructured qualitative interviews exploring their observations of NPD stigma. Interview questions were guided by existing stigma frameworks. Responses were then coded thematically using inductive and deductive techniques. Results are reported by theme. Overall, clinicians agreed that NPD was a highly stigmatized disorder in both public and healthcare settings. NPD stigma was consistently reported at the individual, interpersonal, and structural levels and was most salient in the dimensions of course, origin, and peril. Stigma is thought to be a central barrier to diagnosing and treating NPD. More research and clinician education are critical next steps in reducing stigma. This investigation represents an important step forward in the characterization and conceptualization of NPD stigma.
