Kişilik Bozukluklarının Çocuk ve Ergenlerde Öncül Bulguları

Abstract

Kişilik bozuklukları toplumda sık görülen ve işlevsellikte önemli derecede bozulmaya neden olan psikiyatrik rahatsızlıklardır. Şu anda tanı sistemlerinde çocuklarda kişilik bozuklukları ile ilgili bir tanı sınıflaması yer almamaktadır. Geçtiğimiz yıllarda erişkin kişilik bozukluklarının öncülü olarak kişilik özellikleri ve bozukluklarının çocukluk ve ergenlik döneminde araştırılmasına yönelik artan bir ilgi vardır. Bu yazıda kişilik bozukluklarının çocukluk ve ergenlik dönemindeki öncül bulguları konusunda yapılan çalışmalar gözden geçirilmiştir.
