Comparaison de caractéristiques sociales et cliniques en fonction du sexe chez des personnes ayant un trouble de la personnalité du groupe B
Introduction
In the field of Cluster B personality disorders (PDs), studies have primarily focused on borderline personality disorder (BPD), predominantly including women. Moreover, studies comparing various Cluster B PDs have examined some clinical features between men and women, particularly symptoms, without considering social characteristics.
Objectives
This study aims to compare the social and clinical characteristics of women and men with Cluster B PDs, using a database from a specialized service for persons with a PD.
Methods
Clinical variables examined included the severity of psychopathology as assessed by clinicians and perceived PD symptoms. These were measured using validated tools and entered into the service's database. Social variables included for example marital status and social network, and were systematically collected upon entry into the service. Additionally, therapy goals, part of the initial assessment, were qualitatively compared.
Results
Socially, there was no statistically significant difference between men (n = 103) and women (n = 283) regarding marital status, education, source of income, and number of leisure activities. Men had a more limited social network than women (P < 0.001). According to the Borderline Personality Questionnaire (BPQ), more women scored in the BPD diagnostic range compared to men (P < 0.001). Analysis of BPQ dimensions showed that women exhibited more dissociative symptoms (P = 0.04). Also, the proportion of women reporting substance use in the last month was significantly higher (P = 0.04). Regarding therapy goals, improving relationships with oneself and others was most common among women, while men's goals mainly focused on managing symptoms and activities of daily life (e.g., finding a job, adopting healthier lifestyle habits).
Conclusion
This study contributes to considering sex and gender in service provision for people with Cluster B PDs. While there are several similarities between men and women, some social differences support the addition of interventions targeting everyday life elements, such as lifestyle habits for men.
