Credits: 1 CEU Hours

Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) occurs primarily in the context of emotional reactivity, such as anger and shame. A hypersensitive affective response to perceived rejection, and other adverse social cues, might be heightened among those with BPD. This study follows 117 young adult women to assess the relation between social cues, aggression and personality disorder symptomology. BPD and antisocial personality disorder (ASPD) symptom severity alter the relationship between rejection, shame, and aggression suggesting that characteristics of personality disorders might increase risk of aggression after experiencing rejection. BPD may be especially important as it consistently exacerbates this relationship and clinical interventions are needed to address emotional reactivity in this population as a means of reducing the likelihood of engaging in aggressive behaviors.
