Prevalence rates of borderline symptoms reported by adolescent inpatients with BPD, psychiatrically healthy adolescents and adult inpatients with BPD
ConclusionsTaken together, the results of this study suggest that adolescents report BPD as severe as that reported by adults. They also suggest that BPD in adolescents is not a tumultuous phase of normal adolescence. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. (Source: Personality and Mental Health)

Barriers and facilitators to the implementation of mentalization ‐based treatment (MBT) for borderline personality disorder
This study aims to investigate the success or failure of newly started mentalization‐based treatment programs, and to explore the barriers and facilitators. The implementation trajectories of seven different mentalization‐based treatment programs in six mental health clinics in the Netherlands were included in a multiple case study combining a qualitative and quantitative design. Semi‐structured interview data were collected from several stakeholders of each program. Narrative reconstructions of each interview were assessed by 12 independent experts. Results showed that several programs struggled to implement their p...

Psychological treatment of depression and anxiety in patients with co ‐morbid personality disorder: A scoping study of trial evidence
Abstract
It is unclear what the best psychological treatment is for depression and anxiety in people with co‐morbid personality disorder. Trials of different psychological treatment options for this patient group have been conducted, but this evidence has not previously been systematically reviewed or critically appraised. We set out to conduct a scoping review in order to describe which psychological therapies appear most effective in treating depression and/or anxiety in patients with co‐morbid personality disorder. PsycINFO, Cochrane library trials, Medline and Embase databases were searched for studies involving ra...

Parent –child relationship associated with the development of borderline personality disorder: A systematic review
Abstract
The parent–child relationship (PCR) is considered as a central factor in most contemporary theories on the aetiology of borderline personality disorder (BPD). This systematic review aimed to answer the three following questions: (1) How is the PCR described by BPD participants and their parents in comparison to other normative and clinical groups? (2) Which aspects of the PCR are specifically associated with a BPD diagnosis in adulthood? (3) How can the facets of the PCR identified in the reviewed studies shed light on the general aetiological models of BPD? Forty studies were retained and divided into three cat...

Looking ahead through a fragile lens: Vulnerable narcissism and the future self
Abstract
Empirical data are lacking with regard to the degree to which self‐absorbed hypersensitivity may be related to perceptions of the future self. The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between vulnerable narcissism and several components of future orientation among psychiatric outpatients. A sample of 132 adult outpatients seeking mental health services completed measures assessing vulnerable narcissism, optimism, personal growth initiative and symptom distress, along with several questions regarding specific future outcomes. Correlation and regression analyses were used to examine relationships ...

Measuring the contribution of art therapy in multidisciplinary treatment of personality disorders: The construction of the Self ‐expression and Emotion Regulation in Art Therapy Scale (SERATS)
In conclusion, the SERATS is brief and content‐valid and offers objective and reliable information on self‐expression and emotion regulation in art therapy among patients with personality disorders cluster B/C. Although more research on construct validity is needed, the SERATS is a promising tool to be applied as an effect scale and as a monitoring tool during art therapy treatment. © 2017 The Authors Personality and Mental Health Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd (Source: Personality and Mental Health)

Implementation of evidence ‐based treatments for borderline personality disorder: The impact of organizational changes on treatment outcome of mentalization‐based treatment
Abstract
The quality of implementation of evidence‐based treatment programs for borderline personality disorder (BPD) in routine clinical care is a neglected issue. The first aim of this mixed‐method naturalistic study was to explore the impact of organizational changes on treatment effectiveness of a day‐hospital programme of mentalization‐based treatment. Consecutively referred BPD patients were divided into a pre‐reorganization cohort (PRE‐REORG) and a cohort during reorganization (REORG). Psychiatric symptoms (Brief Symptom Inventory) and personality functioning (Severity Indices of Personality Problems‐1...

The Work and Social Adjustment Scale: Psychometric properties and validity among males and females, and outpatients with and without personality disorders
Abstract
The Work and Social Adjustment Scale (WSAS) is an outcome measure assessing degree of functional impairment. Its psychometric properties, validity and sensitivity to change have been supported in several studies. However, no explicit psychometric or validity study of WSAS has been performed on data from a large sample of psychiatric outpatients, with and without personality disorders. The aim of this study was therefore to provide additional knowledge of the properties of WSAS in such a sample.
The material comprised data from 1371 patients, from 15 different units participating in the Norwegian Network of Persona...

Psychosocial functioning in adolescents with and without borderline personality disorder
ConclusionsTaken together, the results of this study suggest that adolescents with BPD are more impaired in both the social and vocational areas of functioning than psychiatrically healthy comparison subjects. They might also suggest that an overlooked area of strength concerns their relationships with peers. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. (Source: Personality and Mental Health)

Prevalence rates of childhood protective factors in adolescents with BPD, psychiatrically healthy adolescents and adults with BPD
ConclusionsTaken together, the results of this study suggest that adolescents meeting criteria for BPD report lower rates of some protective factors than psychiatrically healthy adolescents. They also suggest that they have higher rates of some protective factors than adults with BPD. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. (Source: Personality and Mental Health)
