Abnormal Psych

- childhood onset (born with, experiences change person; ex = reinforcement for lying)
- chronic

- cluster A: Odd eccentric PDOs (flat affect, strange cognition, emotional problems) 3/4
- cluster B: Dramatic - emotional, interpersonal PDOs (lots of emotions, maladaptive cognitions/ thoughts, maladaptive relationships, impulse control) 4/4
- cluster C: Anxious-fearful PDOs (high anxiety, relationship problems, maladaptive cognitions/thoughts) 3/4

- paranoid (distrust/ sus of others such that their motives are interpreted as intentional)
- schizoid (pattern of detachment from soc relationships and restricted range of emotions in interpersonal settings)
- schizotypal (pattern of soc/ intp defecits, acute discomfort in relationships, cognitive and perceptual distortions, eccentricness in behaviors)

- antisocial (disregard/ violating rights of others)
- borderline (instability of intp relationships, self-image, affects, and control over impulses)
- histrionic (excessive emotion and attention seeking)\
- narcissistic (pattern of grandiosity (in fantasy or behavior), need for admiration, lack of empathy)

- dependent (excessive need to be taken care of, leads to submissive/ clinging behavior and fears of separation)
- avoidant (pattern of social inhibition, feelings of inadequacy, hypersensitivity to neg evaluation)
- OCPD (orderliness, perfectionism, mental and interpersonal control, at the expense of flexibility, openness, and efficiency)

cluster B (4/4 maladaptive/ deficits so naturally higher)

- pervasive and inflexible
- causes distress/ chronic impairment
- high comorbidity w/ other PDOs
- poorer prognosis (not easy to change, maladaptive)

At least 2 areas:
- cognition (think a certain way only)
- affect (loss of emotion)
- interpersonal functioning (relationships: develop, maintain)
- impulse control

Yes, but this flexibility causes stress/ impairment

3.9% of gen pop

M > F (for all cluster A PDOs)

- same distinguishing features, BUT schizotypal is aware of oddities, which causes depression sometimes

30 - 50%

- acute discomfort in relationships
- cognitive and perceptual distortions
- eccentricities in behaviors (low social acceptance; sit alone at lunch)

- reference delusions/ beliefs (random things have more meaning for no reason; specks on wall, still grounded in reality)

- speech (tangential)
- behaviors (strange gait; head bent at a weird angle, sit weirdly)
- mannerisms and dress (weather appropriate, just weird combos)
