The purpose of this special issue of the Journal of Personality Disorders is to promote the integration of personality structure and dynamics towards more evidence-based and clinically useful conceptualizations of personality pathology. In this article, we describe a contemporary model of personality structure that is useful for distinguishing patients from one another and the connections between this structure and within-person dynamics that occur across different levels of an individual personality, across situations, and within situations. In so doing, we connect the personality trait tradition that has tended to emphasize stable individual differences with traditions that have tended to focus on the more dynamic aspects of interpersonal behavior and emotional experience. We then introduce the empirical articles in this special issue within this integrative context, in order to demonstrate the value in connecting personality structure to dynamics for research and practice.
《人格障碍杂志》这一特刊的目的是推动人格结构与动力学的整合,朝着更具循证性且对临床有用的人格病理学概念化方向发展。在本文中,我们描述了一种当代人格结构模型,它有助于区分不同患者,以及该结构与个体人格不同层面、不同情境间及情境内发生的个体内部动力学之间的联系。在此过程中,我们将倾向于强调稳定个体差异的人格特质传统与倾向于关注人际行为和情感体验更具动态性方面的传统联系起来。然后,我们在这一整合背景下介绍本期特刊中的实证文章,以展示将人格结构与动力学相联系对研究和实践的价值。
