Role of Interpersonal Sensitivity and Cognitive Distortions in the Development of Psychopathologies
Abstract
This study explores the conceptual framework and existing research on the role of interpersonal sensitivity and cognitive distortions in the development of various psychopathologies. To achieve this, a comprehensive review of national and international literature was conducted, including studies, master's theses, and doctoral dissertations. Interpersonal sensitivity, a personality trait associated with challenges in interpersonal relationships, is identified as a risk factor for the onset of psychopathology. It is characterized by heightened awareness of others' feelings and behaviors. Individuals with high interpersonal sensitivity often overemphasize their relationships, amplify problems, and become easily upset by these issues. Misinterpretations and biased evaluations of events, driven by low self-esteem and feelings of inadequacy, lead them to focus on negative self-perceptions. These cognitive distortions, which involve erroneous attributions and biased inferences, perpetuate negative emotional states and psychological difficulties. By addressing these dynamics, this study aims to advance understanding in the field and inform future research and intervention programs.
