Abstract

This study reviews the features of borderline personality disorder (BPD) and psychological, biological and social factors underlying its etiology are discussed. Despite earlier strong emphasis on the importance of early childhood trauma, it is not the only factor in BPD development and biosocial theory, as an interactive model, is more descriptive in understanding such a complex syndrome. Increased impulsivity in BPD has both interpersonal and social implications, and causes high rates of violence and crime. In order to decrease the incidence of BPD, It's important to increase awareness in the society about the risk factors of BPD starting from early childhood.

Borderline Kişilik Bozukluğu: Bir Gözden Geçirme

Abstract

Bu çalışmada Borderline Kişilik Bozukluğunun (BKB) özellikleri incelenmiş, etiyolojisindeki psikolojik, biyolojik ve sosyal faktörler üzerinde durulmuştur. Çocukluk çağı travmalarının önemi uzun yıllar vurgulansa da, BKB gelişiminde tek başına ağırlık taşımadığı, daha etkileşimsel bir model olan biyososyal teorinin bu karmaşık sendromu anlamada daha açıklayıcı olduğu bilinmektedir. BKB’de artmış dürtüsellik kişiler arası olduğu kadar, toplumsal sorunlara da yol açmakta, şiddet ve suç oranlarının artmasına neden olmaktadır. BKB oranını azaltmak için, erken çocukluk döneminden itibaren, risk faktörleri üzerinde toplumun bilinçlenmesi önemlidir.
