The intense, unstable interpersonal relationships characteristic of patients with borderline personality disorder (BPD) are thought to represent insecure attachment. The Reciprocal Attachment Questionnaire was used to compare the attachment styles of patients with BPD to the styles of patients with a contrasting personality disorder, obsessive-compulsive personality disorder (OCPD). The results showed that patients with BPD were more likely to exhibit angry withdrawal and compulsive care-seeking attachment patterns. Patients with BPD also scored higher on the dimensions of lack of availability of the attachment figure, feared loss of the attachment figure, lack of use of the attachment figure, and separation protest. The findings may be relevant for understanding the core interpersonal psychopathology of BPD and for managing therapeutic relationships with these patients.
边缘型人格障碍（BPD）患者强烈、不稳定的人际关系被认为代表着不安全依恋。使用相互依恋问卷比较了BPD患者与对照人格障碍——强迫型人格障碍（OCPD）患者的依恋风格。结果显示，BPD患者更有可能表现出愤怒退缩和强迫性寻求照顾的依恋模式。BPD患者在依恋对象不可得、害怕失去依恋对象、不利用依恋对象以及分离抗议等维度上的得分也更高。这些发现可能有助于理解BPD的核心人际心理病理学以及管理与这些患者的治疗关系。
