Multifinality in the development of personality disorders: A Biology × Sex × Environment interaction model of antisocial and borderline traits
TLDR
A common model of antisocial and borderline personality development is presented and shared risk models for ASPD and BPD are extended by specifying genetic loci that may confer differential vulnerability to impulsive aggression and mood dysregulation among males and impulsive self-injury and mood Dysregulation among females.

Childhood institutional care and personality disorder traits in adulthood: findings from the British national surveys of psychiatric morbidity.
TLDR
Testing the hypotheses that institutional care constitutes a risk factor for adult personality psychopathology and that conduct disorder acts as a mediator to the institutional care effects found initial findings of associations of institutional care with cluster B personality traits in the two populations disappeared after adjusting for conduct disorder symptoms.
Borderline personality features in childhood: The role of subtype, developmental timing, and chronicity of child maltreatment

Temperament and early environment influence comorbidity and personality disorders in major depression.
TLDR
It is suggested that it is possible to better understand the patterns of comorbidity between major depression, other axis I disorders, and personality disorders by studying the underlying temperament dimensions in patients with major depression.
Childhood antecedents of adolescent personality disorders.
TLDR
The results support the view that personality disorders can be traced to childhood emotional and behavioral disturbances and suggest that these problems have both general and specific relationships to adolescent personality functioning.
Influence of child and adolescent psychiatric disorders on young adult personality disorder.
TLDR
Assessment of personality pathology before late adolescence may be warranted because childhood or adolescent axis I disorders may set in motion a chain of maladaptive behaviors and environmental responses that foster more persistent psychopathology over time.
DSM-III-R personality disorders in a mood and anxiety disorders clinic: prevalence, comorbidity, and clinical correlates.
TLDR
The prevalence, comorbidity, and clinical correlates of personality disorders in an outpatient sample with anxiety and depression were examined, and the most prevalent personality disorders were Avoidant, Obsessive-Compulsive, Paranoid, and Borderline.
Borderline personality disorder in major depression: symptomatology, temperament, character, differential drug response, and 6-month outcome.
TLDR
After 6 months, those with BPD had a favorable outcome in regard to depressive symptoms, social adjustment, and even improvement in the character measure of self-directedness, and those with the poorest outcome were those with OPD.
Early deficient parenting in depressed outpatients is associated with personality dysfunction and not with depression subtypes.
TLDR
Personality dysfunction may mediate the relation between early parental deprivation and adult psychopathology and significant linear associations were found for recurrent depression, comorbid substance disorder, current symptomatology and, of most significance, personality disorders.
Characteristics of depressed patients who report childhood sexual abuse.
TLDR
Multivariate analyses suggest that depression is unlikely to be a direct consequence of childhood sexual abuse, and appears to be associated with a greater chance of having experienced a broadly dysfunctional childhood home environment, a greater chances of having a borderline personality style, and, in turn, a great chance of experiencing depression in adulthood.
Continuities between psychiatric disorders in adolescents and personality disorders in young adults.
TLDR
The rate of personality disorders was lower among young adults who had had emotional disorders during adolescence than among those who have had disruptive disorders, suggesting either that treatment for emotional disorders is more effective or that the personality psychopathology in these adolescents is not as severe as that in adolescents with disruptive disorders.
Reported pathological childhood experiences associated with the development of borderline personality disorder.
TLDR
It is suggested that sexual abuse is neither necessary nor sufficient for the development of borderline personality disorder and that other childhood experiences, particularly neglect by caretakers of both genders, represent significant risk factors.
