The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between dimensions of borderline personality organization (as assessed according to Kernberg's model), sexual dysfunctions, and paraphilic interest in a community sample of women. Two hundred and sixty-six healthy women were asked to complete a set of questionnaires including the Inventory of Personality Organization (IPO), the Italian version of the Female Sexual Function Index, and a checklist to assess the prevalence of paraphilic interests. Results showed that women with sexual dysfunctions and paraphilic interests are characterized by higher scores on three out of four IPO subscales: Instability of self/others, Instability of behavior, and Psychosis. The results provide evidence of a possible connection between borderline personality organization and sexual life and support the need for a thorough assessment of personality functioning in patients with sexual problems.
本研究的目的是在女性社区样本中探讨边缘型人格组织维度（根据克恩伯格模型评估）、性功能障碍和性偏好兴趣之间的关系。266名健康女性被要求完成一系列问卷，包括人格组织量表（IPO）、意大利版女性性功能指数，以及一份评估性偏好兴趣患病率的清单。结果显示，患有性功能障碍和性偏好兴趣的女性在IPO四个分量表中的三个上得分较高：自我/他人的不稳定性、行为的不稳定性和精神病性。研究结果为边缘型人格组织与性生活之间可能存在的联系提供了证据，并支持对有性问题的患者进行人格功能全面评估的必要性。
