To investigate change in personality disorder (PD) traits between early adolescence and early adulthood among individuals in the community.
PD traits were assessed in 1983 (mean age = 14), 1985-86 (mean age = 16) and 1992 (mean age = 22) in a representative community sample of 816 youths.
Overall, PD traits declined 28% during both adolescence and early adulthood. PD traits were moderately stable during the first 2-year interval, and were as stable as they have been reported to be among adults over similar intervals. PD trait stability declined slightly as the inter-assessment interval increased. Adolescents with PDs tended to have elevated PD traits during early adulthood.
PD traits tend to decline steadily in prevalence during adolescence and early adulthood. However, adolescents with PDs often have elevated PD traits as young adults, and the stability of PD traits appears to be similar during adolescence and early adulthood.
调查社区中个体从青春期早期到成年早期人格障碍（PD）特质的变化。
对816名青少年的代表性社区样本在1983年（平均年龄 = 14岁）、1985 - 1986年（平均年龄 = 16岁）和1992年（平均年龄 = 22岁）进行了PD特质评估。
总体而言，在青春期和成年早期，PD特质下降了28%。在最初的两年间隔期内，PD特质具有中等稳定性，并且与在类似间隔期内成年人的稳定性相当。随着评估间隔时间的增加，PD特质稳定性略有下降。患有PD的青少年在成年早期往往具有较高的PD特质。
在青春期和成年早期，PD特质的患病率往往会稳步下降。然而，患有PD的青少年在成年后通常仍具有较高的PD特质，并且PD特质在青春期和成年早期的稳定性似乎相似。
