    Study Notes

    Clustered Personality Disorders in ICD-10

    • ICD-10 does not use the DSM-5's clusters (A, B, C) for personality disorders.
    • Instead, ICD-10 groups personality disorders under a wider category of personality and behavioural disorders.
    • ICD-10 uses a descriptive, not clustered, approach to personality disorders.
    • Each diagnosis (e.g., Paranoid, Schizoid, Schizotypal) has its own criteria.
    • Diagnosing in ICD-10 involves assessing long-term issues in self-perception, relationships, emotions, and impulse control.
    • Criteria focus on persistent behaviour patterns that differ from societal norms, causing distress or impairment.
    • Disorder severity ranges from mild to severe.
    • Clinicians evaluate overall personality functioning (self-direction, relationships, emotion regulation, empathy).
    • This aids in distinguishing between personality and behavioural disorders.
    • A key distinction in ICD-10 is ego-syntonic (self-consistent) versus ego-dystonic (self-dissonant) behaviours.

    Key Differences Between ICD-10 and DSM-5 Approaches

    • ICD-10's descriptive approach may lead to different categorizations by different observers.
    • DSM-5 uses clusters, providing a more systematic way to identify related traits across disorders.
    • ICD-10 and DSM-5 criteria can lead to different diagnoses.
    • Accurate diagnosis relies on thorough, consistent clinical assessments, not just clusters, but on detailed individual personality traits.

    Specific ICD-10 Personality and Behavioural Disorders

    • Disorders under this category represent various traits and behaviours.
    • Each disorder has unique diagnostic criteria, necessitating individual assessments.
    • Enduring, inflexible patterns of experience and behaviour define these disorders.
    • Assessment considers impairment in interpersonal functioning and emotional regulation.
    • Manifestations may include relationship problems, emotional instability, or impulsivity.

    ICD-10 and Personality Disorder Assessment: Practical Considerations

    • Assessment needs careful evaluation of long-term, recurring behaviour patterns.
    • Observing interpersonal interactions, emotional responses, and self-perception clarifies presentation.
    • Cultural context significantly influences expressed personality and behaviour.
    • Understanding the individual's history (development) clarifies impairment severity.
    • Self-report questionnaires and interviews enhance assessments.
