- Title
Personality pathology as a driver of positive psychotic symptoms beyond diagnostic borders.
- Authors
Kaess, Michael; Cavelti, Marialuisa
- Abstract
Psychotic experiences such as hallucinations or delusions have their prevalence peak in childhood and become less prevalent into adolescence, adulthood, and old age. In addition, the finding that BPD features explained the inverse relationship between age and psychotic symptoms is consistent with the literature on stress sensitivity and emotional reactivity of psychotic experiences. Peters et al1 in this issue investigated changes in borderline personality disorder (BPD) features across the life span as a potential mechanism underlying the inverse relationship between positive psychotic symptoms and age.
