Description
Description:
Dr. Kernberg proposes that the DSM-V proposal is a helpful advance in the understanding of personality disorders, in spite of internal inconsistencies in its “hybrid model” basis. At the bottom, the psychiatric research community is struggling with a lack of an integrated conception of the development and structure of the personality.
Educational Objectives:
- Approach in new ways the relations between neurobiological, symbolic-intentional, and behavioral structures.
- Search for underlying dynamic organization of descriptive personality traits.
- Re-evaluate trait theory and process theory regarding the components of personality.
