Personality in behavioral disorders in adolescence
Personalidad en los trastornos del comportamiento en la adolescencia
Main Article Content
Background: personality is the construct that underlies our way of thinking, feeling and behaving and has a significant influence on psychopathology. In this context, the study of the relationship between personality and behavioral disorders in adolescence is relevant. The main objective of study is to analyze the differences between cases with Conduct Disorders (CD) and a general population (GP) sample in the different personality profiles/prototypes (PPP) derived from the Millon Adolescent Clinical Inventory (MACI). A second objective was to study the most parsimonious PRP model capable of predicting CD.
Methodology: to respond to these objectives, an analytical observational design was used and a random sampling of adolescents in GP (n = 461) and consecutive sampling of patients with CD, assessed according to DSM-5 criteria (n = 78) was carried out. The measurement instruments used were the MACI and the Adolescent Symptom Inventory. Results: the Pessimistic, Egocentric, Rebellious, Rude, Oppositional, Self-punitive and Borderline PRP presented a significantly higher mean in CD and the Submissive and Conformist PRP in GP. The most parsimonious PRP model that best predicts CD is shaped by having male sex and the most rude/borderline and least self-punitive PRP. The study offers a new perspective of personality in cases of CD that orients its clinical study, propitiating new lines of research that include personality in the heterogeneity of the disorder.
