  • Title: Child development and personality disorder.
    Author: Cohen P.
    Journal: Psychiatr Clin North Am; 2008 Sep; 31(3):477-93, vii. PubMed ID: 18638647.
    Abstract:
    The evidence is surprisingly strong that even early adolescent personality disorders or elevated personality disorder symptoms have a broad range of negative effects well into adulthood, for the most part comparable to or even larger than those of Axis I disorders. Current evidence suggests that the most severe long-term prognosis is associated with borderline and schizotypal PDs and elevated symptoms. And of course, childhood conduct disorder is in a peculiar status, disappearing in adulthood to be manifest as a very severe disorder-antisocial PD-in a minority of those with the adolescent disorder.
